Ep 11. Silence is Deadly: How Trey's Law is Taking the Muzzle Off the Truth

Guest: Elizabeth Phillips.

In this NEW interview, we discuss "taking the muzzel off the truth" with guest Elizabeth Phillips, the primary advocate behind Trey's Law in Texas. Join Robert, Zane, and GRACE Assistant Director, Emily Petrie, as we talk with Elizabeth about her brother's story and how it inspired the legislation that is rewriting the use of NDA's in child abuse cases. Plus, some ponderings about why Superman works a 9-5, if cats really are evil, and what it means to find hope in dark places.
