Introducing Dig Season 3: The Girls

They were trusted educators and respected coaches. But in the summer of 2025, twin brothers Ronnie and Donnie Stoner were indicted on more than 50 charges related to child sex abuse allegations. A group of young women say the abuse stretched back nearly two decades. So what took so long? This is the story of those women who say they survived the abuse, took matters into their own hands and are still fighting for the girls they used to be.

Solid, well researched journalism. This is what local reporting is for. So appreciative of the women for telling their stories. I wish we could say this is an isolated case, but these stories are far too common in criminal legal systems across the country. 100% worth listening to.

I just finished season one. I was outraged for the victims and I was outraged by the pushback you received by police and prosecutors during this process. I found myself yelling in my car as I listened because it was so frustrating. To the brave women: you deserve better. So much better.

I found this podcast when it was briefly mentioned on an episode of Crime Junkie. I had no idea season 3 would be based in my current home city of Louisville, KY. Each episode of this season is more terrifying than the last and every second I listen I can’t comprehend why this isn’t local or national news. Begging people to listen to help hold people accountable and change how abuse is mitigated in the future.

Listening to season 1 after starting with season 3. Both are compelling and well reported and researched, I also appreciate the way they present the victims … just wanted to comment on how dismissive and hostile LMPD spokesperson Jesse Halliday was. It’s beyond frustrating . I commend the reporters for staying calm and clear and asking the hard questions.
