About Stand Up Eight

More than true crime. Thirty years ago, Lenore Rattray, 21, was taken at gunpoint from a business in Vancouver to a hideout in North Vancouver. For over a week she was held and sexually assaulted by her captor until he was apprehended by North Vancouver RCMP. Ms. Rattray, for the last three decades, has chosen to remain silent about her traumatic experience. Until now. It's a personal account of survival, living with trauma, and how her past experiences have impacted her life both professionally and personally, especially as a mother to her young daughter. A story that needs to be told.

    STAND UP EIGHT - THE TRAILER

    Over 30 years ago, on Friday, July 3, 1992, Lenore Rattray, then 21, was taken at gunpoint from a Hastings Street business in Vancouver to a hideout near Mosquito Creek in North Vancouver. For over a week she was held captive and sexually assaulted by her captor until he was apprehended by North Vancouver RCMP on July 12, 1992. He was sentenced as a Dangerous Offender for violent sexual crimes against four women in BC and finally convicted for a double murder. Lenore, for the last three decades, has chosen to remain silent about her traumatic experience despite the media sensation her abduction/disappearance created at the time. Until now. STAND UP EIGHT - a personal account of survival, living with trauma/PTSD, and how her past experiences have impacted her life both professionally and personally, especially as a mother to her young daughter.
