In our last episode of "Cults, Crimes, and Conspiracies Month" we examine the case of Lorena and John Bobbitt, the infamous trial of the "mad woman" who cut off her husband's penis. We dissect why Lorena was torn apart by the public and press, when in reality she was the victim of abuse and rape, and we go into the political climate in America in the 90s, and why our ideas around domestic violence were so limited and minimized women.

TG: this episode contains many discussions around sexual assault, rape, and domestic violence. For more information on domestic violence, please visit this link, Sexual Violence Resources, for support groups, legal help, hot lines, and more.
