This guest prefers to remain anonymous, so we have removed the Video Footage.

Recently in Palma de Mallorca, a young woman in yachting came forward identifying a Captain as her abuser and pressing charges. As a result, four other women from around the world have also shared their stories in regards to the very same individual.

Since being charged AND convicted in 2018, this man has managed to work his way around many countries, leaving a trail of terrorized women in his wake. When charges are filed, he flees that country, and finds work onboard another vessel, followed by, another victim.

A Serial offender has hunting patterns, which over time, escalate. The first woman that pressed charges, the pattern was drawn out, and the truth of the monster that lay beneath, stayed hidden for a considerable amount of time, until it wasn't. More recently, the grooming and isolation of his chosen victim, has intensified, creating a time line between the initial love bombing, to physical abuse, a matter of months rather than years.

We all need to do better.

Meet this courageous woman and hear her story.
