Mormon Madoff's Wife Went from Riches to Rags After He Confessed to Running $20M Ponzi Scheme (Exclusive)
Andrea Merriman's then-husband turned himself in to federal agents in 2009 for running a $20 million Ponzi scheme Merriman and her family had to rebuild their lives and recover from financial hardship Now, Merriman is sharing her story on TikTok, where she's getting millions of views on her storytime videosAndrea Merriman's world came to a stop in 2009. Her ex-husband, Shawn Merriman, told her that he was living a double life, admitting he had been running a $20 million Ponzi scheme for over a decade. Shawn, the head of a successful investment company and a bishop at their church, turned himself in to federal agents and was imprisoned for fraud soon after. The government quickly seized and repossessed all of their assets, most of which were purchased with investors' money. Shawn, dubbed the "Mormon Madoff," was sentenced to 12 years behind bars. Meanwhile, Andrea was left nearly penniless to care for their four children, the youngest of whom was 3 at the time, and had to quickly figure out how the rest of her life would go. Andrea, 58, talks to PEOPLE exclusively about why she's sharing her story now and how she's healed over the past 16 years. "I remember thinking that, at the time, 'I'm humiliated to be married to a criminal. I'm humiliated getting divorced,'" she shares. "I'm humiliated to go from riches to rags, I'm humiliated, but to do it in the public eye compounded it and multiplied." Along with the humiliation, Andrea was also dealing with a "degree of guilt" knowing the man she loved had scammed people out of millions. "There was a lot of guilt around what if I hadn't been such a peacemaker, what if I hadn't been such a kind and supportive wife, what if I hadn't been so trusting," she says. "Would it have been possible for him to do it so long and then guilt all the people who probably trusted him because of the kind of life I lived and the kind of person I was? Yeah, but some of it has been because he was a criminal and I didn't know it." After her husband's conviction stripped them of everything, Andrea moved to Utah with her four children for a fresh start. Now, she's turning to TikTok to share her story of rebirth. Her first video, detailing the first 24 hours after her life was turned upside down, went viral, amassing over 10 million views. She's gained over 70,000 followers, with users eager to learn how she rebuilt her life. Andrea says she always knew she wanted to do something with her story. She was talking to a group of 20-somethings when one of them suggested she start a TikTok account. "When it happened to me, I felt like I was alone in the world, and there was no one who lived my experience," she explains. "I started my blog in 2010 to help at least one person by sharing my story and getting my name out there so they knew who to call or email if they needed advice." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. "That was why I went to TikTok," she continues. "There's a whole new audience, a new generation. We need messages of hope and encouragement, and we need people to model how to survive and conquer adversity." She shares that her kids were a primary driving force in her recovery and journey, motivating her to forgive and build trust again. "Forgiveness has come with therapy. Faith and religion have helped me," she says. "Being a parent as well, because, as a parent, you cannot require from your kids what you're not willing to do yourself." "When we discovered what happened, my kids looked at me with tears and said, 'What has happened?'" she recalls. "I said, 'I don't know what we're going to do, but the one thing I know we're going to do is we're going to forgive, not for him, but for us.' " Despite everything she's been through, Andrea still "believes in trust" and that "people are good and kind." "Trust is a choice," she says. "Moving forward is a choice. Resilience... it's a skill, but it's a choice. We have more choices than we realize, but when we acknowledge that, we take control of our agency and choose to act rather than be acted upon." Years after the initial shock and heartbreak, Andrea remarried, and her family is doing well. Her youngest recently graduated from high school, and her three oldest kids all graduated from college and "are building careers." "They've grown up and become adults. They're good, kind, hard-working, and have empathy," she tells PEOPLE. "The 16 years of our recovery have been a lesson, a demonstration in resilience and trying new things," she adds. Andrea believes "we each have a life here" and "a mission to fulfill." "Every one of us has the gifts we need to succeed. We must find them and our hard times help us find them," she shares. "I dug deep and found them," she adds. "I got a lot of help along the way from kind people, and now I'm at the point where I can pay it back and share what I've learned and help others, which is a great place to be in." For those who find themselves in a similar situation, Andrea advises them to "focus on something other than your misery in the middle of your horror." "I didn't spend a day in bed. I don't know how, but I was afraid that if I did, I might never get out of bed again," she says. "I didn't let myself indulge in hatred of my ex-husband because I was afraid I would never be able to pull myself out if I did." She continues, telling those who need it to "focus on something other than your misery, have gratitude, [and try] to accomplish something every day." "Being a parent, focusing on my kids helped me," she says. "My worst nightmare in life was to be financially responsible for someone other than myself, and in the end, that's what I got, and I learned I could do it." "I survived, which is a huge thing I learned about myself because I didn't even realize I would be capable of that. We were poor, but we survived." Read the original article on People

Jax Gratton, the Denver hair stylist who went missing in April, has been found dead, according to her mother The 34-year-old was last seen leaving her apartment on April 15 'With a broken heart, I share the news that our beloved Jax Gratton has been found — and she is no longer with us,' Cherilynne Gratton-Camis wrote of her daughterJax Gratton, the 34-year-old Denver-based hairstylist who went missing in April, has been found dead, according to her mother. Cherilynne Gratton-Camis, Jax's mother, announced her daughter's death in a Facebook post on Saturday, June 7. 'With a broken heart, I share the news that our beloved Jax Gratton has been found — and she is no longer with us,' she wrote. 'There are no words strong enough for the grief we are feeling. The light she carried, the love she gave so freely, and the joy she brought into our lives have been taken from this world far too soon," continued Gratton-Camis. The grieving mother added, 'I want to thank everyone — near and far — who has shown up for us. Everyone who shared her story. Everyone who shared her face. Everyone who sent out a prayer, a hope, a kind thought. Everyone who hit the ground running and hasn't stopped." Gratton-Camis also expressed that losing her daughter, who was a trans woman, opened her eyes to the experiences of the LGBTQ+ community 'in ways I can't ignore.' 'It's not just about Jax — it's about all of you in the LGBTQIA+ community who face the world every day with courage, just wanting to live, love and exist safely and equally. That should never be a fight. And yet it is,' she wrote. 'Jax Gratton was a light — I know that. She lit up so many lives just by being herself. Unapologetically. Fiercely. Fully. I see her in every act of love and strength you've shown, and I wish peace, love, and protection for all of you,' continued Gratton-Camis. John Romero of the Lakewood Police Department (LPD) confirmed to PEOPLE that a body was found on Friday, June 6. He said, however, that the coroner has yet to share a positive identification. Jax was last seen leaving her apartment in Denver on Tuesday, April 15, her mom previously told PEOPLE. 'I am terrified for my daughter,' Gratton-Camis said at the time. 'My fear is that somebody killed her,' she continued, then alleging that her daughter had been in abusive relationships in the past. Friends and family told ABC affiliate KMGH-TV that Jax left her apartment at approximately 10 p.m. local time, when she told her roommate that she'd be out for about three hours — but she never came back.

Police Release New Images of Travis Decker, Dad Accused of Killing His 3 Daughters, as He Remains on the Run
Police have released new images of Travis Decker, the 32-year-old Washington man accused of killing his three young daughters Paityn, 9, Evelyn, 8, and Olivia, 5, were last seen during "planned visitation" with their father on May 30, before their bodies were discovered days later The new images of Decker, shared by the Chelan County Sheriff's Office (CCSO), give the public a closer look at his tattoos and clothing around the time of his disappearanceAuthorities in Washington are continuing their search for Travis Decker, the man accused of murdering his three young daughters, and have released new images as they ask for the public's assistance as he remains on the run. On Saturday, June 7, the Chelan County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) released a wanted poster on Facebook that features multiple new photos, and a few previously released images, of the murder suspect, including some that highlight his tattoos and wardrobe. In the photos, Decker — who has been charged with one count of kidnapping and three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of his daughters Paityn, 9, Evelyn, 8, and Olivia, 5 — can be seen with his hair pulled back and tattoos on his arm and ankles. The poster states that Decker, 32, was last seen wearing a tan or green T-shirt, which he was previously photographed in, with dark shorts. He is 5'8 with black hair and brown eyes, and the CCSO described him as "dangerous" and said he "may be armed." In the office's June 7 update, the CCSO wrote that hundreds of law enforcement personnel are searching "dozens of structures and the forests" in the area. "We continue these search efforts, acting upon gathered information and tips from the public, and leads developed through even more search warrants," the organization's statement continued, adding that a local road was reopened after authorities found "no credible threat." "However, we ask the public remain vigilant as they venture back out to the recreation areas of Chelan County. We have notified the USFS that they can reopen the recreation areas as well," the CCSO said. Authorities are encouraging locals to check their doorbell cameras, to contact authorities if they see something helpful to the search and to "not attempt or contact or approach" Decker if they see the suspect. Per a U.S. Marshals Service affidavit obtained by Fox 13 Seattle, the Independent and NBC Right Now, authorities said they were worried that Decker was attempting to flee the United States after allegedly looking up phrases including "how to relocate to Canada" and "how does a person move to Canada" on May 26. He also reportedly searched for information tied to a Canadian job site, the outlets said, citing the affidavit. Decker's daughters were last seen during "planned visitation" with their father on May 30. The Wenatchee Police Department (WPD) then issued an endangered missing persons alert the next day. On June 2, authorities canceled the alert and revealed they had discovered the three girls' remains. Fox 13 Seattle reported that Decker's pickup truck was found near the Rock Island Campground in Leavenworth, Wash., where the bodies were located. A preliminary report seen by the outlet lists their believed cause of death as "asphyxiation." Fox 13 also reported that investigators found a blanket, a wallet, food and car seats for the girls inside Decker's vehicle, which had two bloody handprints on it. The suspect "drove to and left the same campground a day prior to the kidnapping," court documents obtained by the outlet said. Police are now offering a $20,000 reward for any information leading to Decker's arrest, according to ABC News. Arianna Cozart, an attorney who represents the girls' mother, Whitney Decker, told PEOPLE on June 6 that "everybody cares that Travis is found for peace of mind if nothing else." Authorities are asking anyone who has seen Decker to call 911 immediately, or call the CCSO at 509-667-6845. A form can also be submitted to a tip line. If you suspect child abuse, call the Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-4-A-Child or 1-800-422-4453, or go to All calls are toll-free and confidential. The hotline is available 24/7 in more than 170 languages. Read the original article on People
