-Caveat Lector- this may be heavy for survivors
Lauren Stratford, author of Satan's Underground, I Know You're Hurting and Stripped Naked, passed away on April 8th, 2002....Lauren's groundbreaking book, Satan's Underground, was a best seller and resulted in thousands of survivors finding hope and healing, as well as validation for their experiences. In the early 1990's, Lauren became the victim of a vicious smear campaign (see Passantino's below)...Despite the horrendous and shattering attacks on her, she continued to reach out to survivors, had two subsequent successful books (Still available through Pelican Press) and never recanted one word of her testimony. http://parc-vramc.tierranet.com/Lauren%20Stratford.htm All accusations are alleged.
