[Jana Guyewski-Lautigar] Protect Their Story & Truth // Part 2

Content Warning: systemic betrayal, institutional betrayal, gun violence, suicide, and murder.

As shared in part one of her story, Jana Guyewski-Lautigar is a mother, educator, social worker, and author from Bastrop, Louisiana. She joins us today to honor her sister, Crystal McCrorry Jones, whose life tragically ended on February 9th, 2023. Her death was deemed an unattended death - when a person passes away without witnesses or medical personnel present -  and thus, requires certain processes and procedures be completed to properly be investigated. Jana has been on a mission since Crystal’s death to compel the local authorities in the small town of Oak Grove to conduct standard, additional investigatory tasks that she believes should have been completed. Jana also now speaks out as an advocate for other family members seeking justice - and sometimes even just a simple investigation - via the media, her books, and in her classroom. She works to bring to light the injustices that The Broken Cycle Media team is deeply honored she is here today to share Crystal with our audience, as well as to share her expertise, advocacy, and warmth. This episode is dedicated in loving memory of Crystal McCrory Jones.
