I would love to see @academicabuse.com go visit the Preacher Boys Podcast and specifically get into all the abuse going on in unaccredited Bible mills and religious schools. The book might be different but there is a force of individuals in religion who exert power based on no accreditation.

@joncooper-us.bsky.social is for sure one of the coolest and nicest guys around. Thanks for the response and engagement, always good to exchange fun perspectives on great topics.

No, they didn’t. Despite an extensive investigation by the FCC, no suspects were ever identified and no equipment was ever recovered. The five-year statute of limitations passed in 1992, so the people responsible would no longer face criminal punishment should their identities be revealed today.
