Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) - 2078

Tonight's special guest is Jean Riseman, MSW, from San Francisco, California, a survivor of ritual abuse and government and academic mind control experimentation. Born into a multi-generation family that practiced Satanism, she was also a victim of child ography. "I'm a retired clinical social worker and a present-day volunteer and activist," she tells us. "I can truly say I am happy now, in spite of everything I suffered." Jean explains the children in her family were raised to worship evil rather than good, and to this end they're taught to tolerate pain and to hurt others. The intensity of the degree of trauma forces many of them to become dissociative in order to survive. They become amnesiac for these experiences and are taught to have parts that appear to be normal to avoid arousing suspicion. "During the first part of my life, although I looked okay," Jean shares. "I knew there was something terribly wrong with me. I kept trying to find the problem and failed time after time. It wasn't until my early fifties that I was able to remember the abuse. I found out that, in addition to being ritually abused, I had been used in child ography." Jean began to seek info and individual survivors of ritual abuse, the first time she felt at ease with other people. "Being part of the survivor community has allowed me to transcend my upbringing and has given great meaning to my life." Her website, ra-info.org, was the first one on ritual abuse on the Internet. It consists of annotated bibliographies and articles on various facets of ritual abuse and healing. Her blog, offers information about Satanic holidays and more personal posts, including poetry and artwork.
