In this week\u2019s episode, we chat with Amanda Rae, survivor of the infamous Kingston clan, a radical Mormon sect also known as \u201cThe Order.\u201d If you\u2019ve seen Escaping Polygamy on A&E, you might recognize Amanda from the show, where she helped others flee the same secretive and abusive group she escaped at just 17. Amanda shares what it was like growing up in a world built on polygamy, incest, and \u201cpure bloodlines\u201d\u2014including the pressure to marry her cousin, her father\u2019s multiple incestuous marriages, and the cult\u2019s obsession with racial purity. She walks us through the shocking inner workings of the Kingston clan: secret banks, isolation tactics, assigned marriages, and the terrifying consequences of trying to leave. This is the first half of Amanda\u2019s harrowing story of survival, recovery, and advocacy. Stay tuned for Part 2 later this week.
