The Tell by Amy Griffin: 'If you tell anyone I'll rip your teeth out'

That's what Amy Griffin's teacher told her after he raped her when she was just 12. It was only in therapy that she remembered the horrific act she'd buried for over 30 years



Amy Griffin's memoir, "The Tell," reveals she repressed memories of being raped and threatened by her teacher, Mr. Mason, until psychedelic-assisted therapy helped her recall the abuse. For decades, she unknowingly punished her body, driven by the trauma. The therapy unearthed memories of the abuse, including Mason threatening to rip out her teeth if she told anyone. Griffin still struggles with the aftermath, and a mysterious message from a former schoolmate suggests there may be more to uncover.
