Excerpt


It's been more than five years since Elizabeth Carlock Phillips last saw her little brother.

Trey Carlock, a college grad and honor student, planned for a career in neuroscience research.

In 2019, Trey's promising future was cut short.

At nearly 29-years-old, Trey committed suicide.

Trey was sexually abused over the course of several years by Pete Newman, a former counselor at Kanakuk Kamps in Branson, Missouri.

"He was my little brother, and he was groomed from the age of 7," Carlock Phillips said. "And then abused during his adolescent years."
