Beating Chains

Falsely Accused. Framed. Imprisoned.

De: Rusty Labuschagne

Narrado por: Saul Rechlin

Rusty Labuschagne has been through a trauma few have experienced and disclosed. In 2003, the successful Zimbabwean businessman, who ran a safari outfit, flew his own aircraft and had a fishing resort on Lake Kariba, was framed by a poacher, the police, and the courts and wrongfully convicted of drowning a poacher.

He served ten years in Zimbabwe’s prisons, including the notorious Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison, where he suffered through food shortages, no running water, and people dying around him daily.

Rusty lost everything he had worked so hard for, but most of all, his freedom. His story is a testament to his extraordinary resilience in conditions most would find unbearable.

He shares the life lessons he learned – how to harness your inner strength, how to forgive, and how to show gratitude – as he found true freedom through sincerity and humility.

Rusty’s is an inspiring story of true grit in the face of great adversity, of a man who loses everything as he is broken by a corrupt political system, but who then rises to fight that system on his own terms. In doing so he rebuilds himself from the inside out.

Inspirational

I was motivated to be a better person after reading this amazing book. It was so impressive how he kept his attitude positive despite so many set backs!

Never Give up or give in.

Over 2,000 books in my library this is #1. I listened straight thru. A testimony of the friends you make someday my save you. Too many things to list as outstanding. Atrue blue 100% honest account of living in hell on earth and winning his freedom. You have to remember Job in the Bible. My life will never be the same after listening to this man. Thank you so much for your time writing this book that will shake our foundation for life. God bless.

long story of bad conditions but great epilog ...

I didn't love this story but I did end up liking it. There were a couple times I was going to return it. I'm glad I listened till the end. Narrator was ok. For a while through out the book I felt he kind of got what he deserved. Only because he seemed arrogant , privileged and felt he was the law... (He said that too). I was sort of perturbed with him. But he did change up. In the end I learned a great lesson of forgiveness and to let go. And a few other things one being belief in Spirit. He and many other inmates endured more than what seemed humanly possible. I say give the book a try and just hang in with it.
