    Christian - "It Felt Like King Kong Had Struck Me in the Head"

    13-year-old Christian Kimbrough begged his mom to sleep over at his best friend CJ's house.  She allowed it, thinking he'd be safe in a home he had stayed at many times before.  But CJ's family had another houseguest who decided to play Russian Roulette with Christian's life.

    In this episode, we used an alias for Christian's friend that we're calling CJ.
