About Trey


Trey Carlock
Trey Carlock was a beloved citizen of Dallas, Texas, who was silenced to his grave in 2019 at age 28 after a retraumatizing civil litigation process against Kanakuk Ministries.  Their well-known director, Pete Newman, groomed and sexually abused Trey and countless others during his 14-year tenure at the popular Christian sports camp based in Branson, Missouri. Trey was required to file civil litigation by the age of 23, due to Texas’ civil statute of limitations for child sexual abuse (CSA) cases at the time his abuse became known through a 2009 criminal investigation. Kanakuk and its agents forced settlements on “John Does” like Trey, which included restrictive NDAs, silencing victims and covering up what Kanakuk knew about Newman and when (along with concealing other important information from the public). Trey told a therapist, “They will always control me, and I’ll never be free” before he died by suicide.
