    The Dangerous and Deadly Takeover Crisis

    Dr. Phil discusses the dangerous and deadly national takeover trend that thousands of teens and young adults are participating in throughout small towns, and big cities, across the country. A trend that is being promoted on social media and results in hundreds of minors and young adults taking over streets, beaches, parks, malls, and even abandoned properties. Dr. Phil sits down with parents, Terri and Ivan, who say they had never heard the words "Teen Takeover," until it was too late. Tragically, their beautiful and loving 17-year-old daughter, Ali, lost her life after being shot while caught in the middle of crossfire, at a teen takeover party she was attending. Dr. Phil will also speak with Volusia County Sheriff, Michael Chitwood, who has vowed to go after the promoters of these takeovers, as well as Polk County Sheriff, Grady Judd, who has not minced words when it comes to holding parents civilly and possibly criminally accountable for their teen’s takeover behavior.

But one year prior to Jeffs apprehension, Dr. Phil received a guest submission that introduced him to 2 teenage girls, both named Fawn, who claimed to escape the religious sect. At just 16 years old, both girls, in the middle of the night, claimed they ran away from their families who were embedded in the FLDS community.

Today, Dr. Phil speaks with one of the Fawns, now almost 40 years old, to see how she is doing over 2 decades after their first meeting.

    Polygamist Prophet Warren Jeffs Captured: 20 Years Later 

    20 years ago, Warren Jeffs, the self-proclaimed prophet and leader of a polygamist and religious sect, called the FLDS, was captured – leading to a conviction, and life sentence for aggravated sexual assault against two minor females. The FLDS has been described by numerous experts, news outlets, and survivors as a dangerous cult, where young girls, many of whom were minors, were being forced to marry men three times their age, and bare as many children as physically possible. But one year prior to Jeffs apprehension, Dr. Phil received a guest submission that not only placed his focus on Warren Jeffs, but also introduced him to 2 teenage girls who claimed to escape the religious sect, a decision they feared may have been a mistake. Today, Dr. Phil reflects back on that pivotal episode, and shares never before details about how he prepared to help prevent both teenage girls from returning to the FLDS, and the alleged abuse they claimed was occurring.  Sponsored by Preserve Gold: Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.
