Amy Robach and TJ Holmes present Killer Thriller with your host, Alisa Donovan. Hey, everyone. Welcome back to Killer Thriller. We're picking up my conversation with Elizabeth Rome, digging into two cases where abuse and control went unchecked for years inside a college campus and inside a family home. Alright, let's talk about Devil on Campus. Now, Devil on Campus, the Larry Ray story. Quickly, for those of you who don't know, Larry Ray infamously moved in with his daughter on the campus of her college and became a cult-like leader of her group of friends. It is... incredibly disturbing i i can't express how disturbing it is he forced some of them into prostitution for his own financial benefit amongst a host of other things and this this movie also is so good and um this it gets into you know cult-like behavior abuse all kinds of things but first i just want to start with

And I said, you know, this Larry Ray trial, I need to get in there. I need to get a screenwriter in there. At the time I was talking to the then head of Lifetime, Tanya Lopez, who had been a great mentor for me. And I said, Can we tell this story? And of course, the answer was yes.
