The family’s story begins years ago when the mother was forced to send her 3 girls away due to financial instability; they were returned to her just a few years ago. Her oldest daughter, now 14, spoke up on June 18 about the torture she endured at the home after seeing her offender on the street. She had remained silent before then hoping to just forget the incidents. She said she was raped behind the chapel twice a week. Following the girl’s disclosure, her sister revealed she had also been raped and named at least 5 other children the man had abused. Read Article
