“Jen had a broken family, a broken childhood, a broken life, before she found the SBC. The SBC was the only home she ever knew—and they used that against her,” Denhollander told me. “Because she loved and trusted the SBC, she decided to let them break the story. Because she loved and trusted the SBC, she wouldn’t go to a secular outlet to correct the record. She was still trying to protect them—which is typical trauma response for a survivor. Trying not to be a burden, trying to be obedient, trying to be submissive. All she wanted to do was protect them. And nobody was willing to protect her.”
