Hello, my name is David Shurter and I want to bring further awareness to Ritual Abuse and Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA). My father, way back when I was a child, was a performing high priest in a cult that was practicing in Omaha NE during the 60′s and 70′s, and I built this site in order to investigate the activities that he and his friends were involved with.
