Imagine a child's uneven handwriting on a binder, found floating in a river, that reads: "my name is Nora. and I am nine and we are not allowed to leave." This chilling message, discovered by a trotline fisher, ultimately led to a man's fourteen-year prison sentence. How did these nine words expose a hidden community where twenty-two children had not seen the outside world in years?
In this episode, we uncover the story of a homeschool cooperative that transformed into a closed compound in Aldine County, Missouri. We explore how one family was drawn into this isolated world and how a nine-year-old's desperate plea became the key to unraveling it all.
