About Me

Well, I started this site for multiple reasons... I've always been told that my story is unique (not because I was abused) there were alot of other children in the Recieving home while I was there- but because no one has EVER recieved the same amount of years for the same crime... My question is WHY??!! I want my case to be the RULE- NOT the EXCEPTION
#1... if you're a victim right now, there is hope.. ask for help, please #2... I want to see stronger sentances for these abusers... My father recieved 64 consecutive years... He has been in prison since 1982... #3... I pray my story will encourage another, or at least be a stepping stone for stronger, longer and harsher sentances...
My WHOLE story would take a book... The first time I was taken out of the home was at age 3... I had been beaten w/a dog leash 18 times for bringing sand/dirt into the home... A neighbor had, had enough and called the police... I was placed in foster care.Mind you we didn't have computers back then (1977) so they moved from Freemont, Ca.. to Sacramento and my case was out of jurisdiction so at age 4 I went back home and the abuse continued...
BR It got to the point that when they spanked me with a belt I was numb, so they just got more and more creative. My father built in my room (basically a round table w/4 legs, turned upside down) a place for a speed bag for himself, and a torcher spot for me... They, both of my parents would hang me upside down with nothing on and use a cattle prod (we called it the hot-shot) on me, while I twirled around trying to cover myself w/my hands... (The hot-shot didn't leave marks like the belt did).
BR During this time my father continued to molest me.
BR (I remember asking him if he was going to do this to my sister too, and his reply was, "when she gets a little bit older" she is only four years younger than me...He told me that if I told anyone that my mother would kill me... I remember trying to stay awake one night (I couldn't have been more than 7 or 8, I wanted to steal the car and save my sister before he hurt her too.) I was sooo angry at myself, I had it all planned out, I knew where the keys were and in my mind I figured I could really drive...
BR I was sent to school without food or shoes.. But, my parents were part of the PTA, participated in the cake walks and from the outside we looked like the "all-american" family. (We had a brand new Ford Granada, I had ice skating lessons, Dad was the top broker for Centry 21, we weren't rich, but had a comfortable income)
BRI remember freezing out in the cold at night and begging to come into the house... When I used to much toilet paper I was given the dried cobs from corn in replacement. My father took a flat peice of wood about maybe 2ft quared and wrapped the screen from a screen door on it and instead of standing in the corner, they made me kneel on it with only my panties on... I remember getting up and having little squares on my knees..
BR There is sooo much more but one night while sitting at the kitchen table w/my dad trying to answer a math problem he had given me he got really upset... I kept asking if the answer was right and he would tell me "you tell me"... Well at 8yrs old I was confused... My head hit every cabnit in the kitchen that night... My mom (who did favor my sister) said she was going to take my sister to Mcdonalds for ice cream.. On her way, a cop pulled her over (the protective people that night told me the truth) she claimed to the cop that she was speeding because she was afraid her husband was going to kill me and she was trying to get help...
BRWell, I went into The Sacramento County Childrens Receiveing Home that night May 2nd 1982 and my sister went into foster care... Later while I was in The Sacramento County Childrens Receiving Home they found out about the molestation... I wont repeat on this site the graphics of the molest because one I don't want a child to read it, and two it is very discusting...
Last week I went back for the first time in 25 years... I am on a mission to take donated items there once a month to these children of abuse... Here is a slide show from when my family and I went last week.. Please Help a Child Abuse Victim
