Female Pedophilia: Psychological Insights from the Christina Formella and Mary Kay Letourneau Cases

from Secret Passage Podcast · host Dana Vespoli & Shannon Rogers

This week we discuss female pedophiles examining the cases of teachers Christina Formella, 30, accused of abusing her 14-year-old student and Mary Kay Letourneau, who groomed 12-year-old Vili Fualaau, bore his children, and married him post-prison. We look at cultural biases that result in lighter sentences for female perpetrators and the underreporting of abuse of male victims. We question arrested development, impulsivity, and the emotional motivations behind these crimes.    Like, subscribe, and follow us.
