Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) - 3253

Tonight's special guest is Christopher Bruce from Huntsville, Alabama. "I'm a 62 year old male, married, with 5 kids and 8 grandkids," he says. "This is my 2nd marriage; my first only lasted 3 weeks (I married her to get rid of her, if you can believe that), and my 2nd and current marriage has gone 14 years strong, with an additional 3 years dating time." He had an interesting professional life, too. "I used to be a professional graphic designer and a white collar professional, but a government-induced record given me the last 8 years has forced me to change to a Construction-related profession." All this is because of his daughter being removed from him. He did a podcast for 4 years about people like him, who'd had their children legally kidnapped by CPS. "For the last 8 years, amidst court battles over the return of my daughter, stolen legally by the state of Iowa, I expose Governmental corruption as a blogger." He's had quite the struggle in life. "As for my abuse story, I was 'Johnny Gosch'd', attempt-kidnapped in the same city as Johnny Gosh, but this was in 1976, nearly 8 years before Gosh. But I managed to escape my captors. When I was old enough and overt enough to start telling my own nearly-kidnapped story, I related what had happened to my divorced mother and my biological brother, but neither of them believed a word of it at the time." That's not uncommon. "My mother NEVER believed it, and my brother, a die-hard narcissistic type, didn't believe it fully until around 10 years ago, when I related the story again to my cousin. It's an experience that has affected me in various ways over the years, and one I won't forget."
