Furthermore, the church that Mary used to go to, the Church of Christ, she went back to try and figure out if any church members were known to be abusers because she had these recollections of being abused in like a Bible study room in that church.

And she couldn't really investigate much because the police didn't want to help her.

And it's not like she can just conduct interviews with people and hope that they give her a confession that would lead them straight to prison.

However, Jimmy Hinton, he is the minister of the Church of Christ in Pennsylvania and also a very good friend of Mary's.

jimmy's sister had a very similar experience to mary jimmy became the minister after his dad had been the minister of this church for 40 years he's adjusting he's like trying to be a dad trying to be a minister and that is when his adult sister alex is like jimmy i need to talk to you and she tells him that she has these repressed memories of their father the minister abusing her

Alex is actually interviewed and she's asked, you know, I understand that you felt like you had a pretty happy childhood, but in 2011, you started having flashbacks that remind you of the abuse that occurred.

What can you tell me about that?

Alex says, I saw this picture of my dad touching me in an inappropriate way.

But it was one of those things at first I tried to shrug off the image in my head.

Like, oh, that didn't really happen.

You know what I mean?

Like maybe it was an accident.

Maybe I'm not remembering something correctly.

You know, I just kept trying to brush it off.

It was just like bits and pieces.

I didn't have a full memory of it.

So I couldn't quite put it together.

Then in 2011, I was 20 years old.

My dad had asked me to help him babysit kids a couple of times.

So he was still babysitting after he retired as a minister, like church kids.
