Items related to Loss of Innocence
The Clems were a family living the American dream until their fifteen-year-old daughter Carren became addicted to Meth. Within two months of first taking the highly addictive drug Carren had moved out of the family home, spent her entire savings on Meth and resorted to stealing, dealing, and prostitution to pay for her habit. "Loss of Innocence" is told both from Carren's perspective and from the perspective of her father Ron. A former LA police officer, Ron describes how he went back to being a cop to try to rescue his daughter and how he suffered a heart attack in the street when he witnessed Carren sell herself to a drug dealer. Having sold their home and cars to pay for a $100,000 treatment and recovery programme for Carren, the Clems' daughter is alive, clean and sober and this is the family's opportunity to prove that there is life after drug addiction.

About the Author:
The Clems were a perfectly normal, middle class American family. Then fifteen-year-old Carren became addicted to Meth. Her habit shattered the family’s world. Her father almost lost his life in trying to save hers.
Within two months of first taking the highly addictive drug Meth, Carren’s life had spiralled out of control – she had moved out of home, spent her entire savings and resorted to stealing, dealing and prostitution to fund her addiction. Frantic with worry, her father Ron returned to his old job as a police officer in a desperate effort to rescue his daughter, and almost died in the process.
Told with compelling candour and dignity from both Carren’s and Ron’s perspective, this brutally honest account is poignant proof of a father’s love and the real possibility of a life after drugs.
Ron Clem is a retired Los Angeles police officer and the president of non-profit organisation Teens in Crisis. He is a court recognised methamphetamine expert. His daughter, Carren, is now healthy and sober. She works in Yellowstone National Park.
Ron Clem, a retired Los Angeles police officer, is the president of non-profit organisation Teens n Crisis. He is a court recognised methamphetamine expert and has testified in numerous court cases involving children and methamphetamines. His daughter, Carren, works in Yellowstone National Park.
