WARNING: SENSITIVE INFORMATION! PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

NOTE: There are two things I want to prove by doing this series.

The first is to prove to you that satanic ritual abuse(SRA) happens everywhere. I started this series in Tampa, Florida, and in this article, I will report on Evansville, Indiana. However, I hope to cover every state and then go more international! If you want your state/county to be covered then please let me know by shooting me an email! My email: concreteconspiracy1@gmail.com

Now secondly I want to prove that the majority of cases in the era known as the “Satanic Panic” were eventually covered up and haven’t been solved to this day!

If you missed my article on SRA covered up in St. Louis, you could find that here.

Also, my article on SRA in Tampa is here.

Let’s begin!

My sources will end up being shared the same way as I did in my other articles on the subject. Many of these newspapers that I’ve located come from archives that to access you need a subscription. So I’ll link where I got these articles and then insert images of the newspaper sources at the end. (source)

Evansville is known by many as “the devil’s playground”. It is believed that satanic ritual abuse(SRA) is rampant there. The term “the devil’s playground” comes from a television show that aired back in the late 80s called Current Affairs. 86’d Films is currently putting together a documentary called “The Blue House” to address these accusations.

An article from February 1991 talks more about this type of abuse. An Evansville attorney claims that the reason why so many of these cases are ignored is that investigators approach the case with “a posture of disbelief”. The article states that William Welborn who spoke at a day-long seminar claimed that satanic ritual abuse is present in our community and the authorities know it. He continued by saying that authorities including child welfare agencies, police, and prosecutors tend to dismiss reports of ritual abuse because “they are afraid the public will panic if made aware”.

William Welborn, Faye Yager(head of the Atlanta-based Children of the Underground), and Rick Doninger(leader of Society’s League Against Molestation aka SLAM) have all claimed to talk to several children in Evansville who alleged to have been taken out of schools to “a blue house” where they were subjected to ritual abuse.

Yager had videoed interviews of these children. These children claimed to have participated in the mutilation of animals and babies and have witnessed human sacrifice. Yager claimed she used to give information to the FBI until finding out that all of it was thrown in the trash.

A letter from November 1991 says that satanic cults are on the rise in our country. That SRA involves torturous sexual abuse, human and animal sacrifices and mutilations, cannibalism, forced impregnation, and live burials. The letter later claims that abortions are done by satanic cults.

Another public meeting was held to discuss satanic cults throughout the city. The meeting consisted of multiple different accounts of SRA. All can agree that if people knew that satanic ritual abuse was happening then we would all feel a deep sense of urgency. The writer of the article said he was impressed by the number of incidents there were. Rick Doninger claimed that Satan has a group of well-organized and active devotees in Evansville that literally worship Satan by performing satanic rituals and ceremonies. These are required from Satan.

These next few are excerpts of articles about SLAM, Faye Yager, and the Blue House.

Judge to allow out-of-state trips due to alleged satanic ritual abuse.

More on the story above about Rademacher.

Last one for today. It’s an article about William Welborn(mentioned above). Welborn “committed suicide”. Could this have been a cover-up because he was getting too close to the truth about what really happened? I guess we’ll never really know.
