"I had been molested by a friend of his [her father].

“It was a horrible life that I never wanted to go back to, living with him and Beth and the fighting and the drugs.

“When I got to my mother’s, although she drank, it was much more peaceful.

“I was in school. I had friends. I was willing to do anything not to go back,” she concluded.
