Bredemeier, who also hosts a podcast listed on Apple called “Let’s Talk Trauma,” is described as an ‘open space to talk about and listen to people’s traumatic experiences.”
The family of the 17-year-old girl, who Bredemeier coached, alerted the school and police about the alleged relationship that was happening off of school grounds, police and sources told WRIC-TV.
