We interview Stephanie Sellers, PhD about her book Daughters Healing from Family Mobbing. Family mobbing is a group act of aggression that targets a family member. It can be typified by a single act of violence or a pattern of abuse over years. Whether isolated or long-term, mobbing enforces the family's domination and control over another. Typically, parents—including adoptive, foster, and step—initiate Family Mobbing. Some relatives may openly participate while the rest of the family may passively support attacks.
Stephanie A. Sellers holds a Ph.D. in Native American Studies with a research focus on women’s issues. She's a committed volunteer victim’s advocate and professor at Gettysburg College. She's authored two other books, Native American Autobiography Redefined: A Handbook and Native American Women’s Studies Primer, and is a founding member of a collegiate women’s leadership committee for the American Association of University Women.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
