Jehovah’s Witnesses: No One Tells You What Happens After You Escape

Désirée Ohrbeck grew up in Denmark in the rigid control of the Jehovah’s Witnesses. She survived CSA from her stepfather, and when she sought help from religious leaders, she was dismissed, blamed, and told to retract her statement to the police.

Lingering effects of the trauma impact her daily life.
