Our story begins with a man walking into a movie theater in Noblesville, Indiana, 22-year-old Brent Allred. Brent is shy, self-effacing, and junior at nearby Ball State University. He's meeting a woman here, or rather a girl, for the very first time. They've been talking for six months now, and today he's wearing the appropriate amount of overpriced cologne, a button-down shirt, black leather shoes, and he's holding a pair of movie tickets for the two of them that he bought in advance for this day. **Trigger warning, this episode discusses a relationship with an underage girl** Find us online.
