Before “Trust Me”… She Lived It | A True Story of Belief, Control & a False Prophet | Dr Christine

With Netflix’s “Trust Me: A False Prophet” topping charts worldwide, many are just now learning about the rise and fall of Samuel Bateman. But years before that documentary, Dr. Christine Marie sat in my home and shared her own story of a false prophet. This interview—recorded six years ago—remains one of the most powerful conversations I’ve ever had. Because this isn’t just a story about one man… It’s about belief. How it forms. How it deepens. And how, in the wrong hands, it can be used as a tool for control. If you’ve followed Hidden True Crime, you know we’ve explored this before—from Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow to the Duggar family. This conversation with Christine may be one of the clearest examples of how it happens.
