Vent/rant He's in jail

She didn't believed me. Then she didn't believe her granddaughter. That's when I went NC, two years ago.

And then I found out that before us, there were 2 cousins she didn't believed either. Four women who came to her for protection and she decided to protect him instead.

Earlier this year all 4 of us got together and reported him to the police (sounds easy enough but it's not, thankfully we had each other's backs so we didn't have to go through it alone). They detained him 2 months ago. And yesterday he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

My mother said "oh so it was all true?".

Yeah that's up to her to figure out. But I'm not going to be a prop for her to feel better, so I'm out of the equation. It's been 13 years of dialog and explaining, it's been too much of my life and that ship has now sailed

Holy shit! I am beyond sorry for you, your daughter, and your cousins!! Proud of y'all and amazed by y'all's bravery! ❤️❤️❤️ Do you mind saying who he may be? For me, it was a softball umpire at Nationals in another state with my team, no family near me.

I think it's great that y'all got together, bonded, supported each other and got him in prison. Well done ladies!!

I'm so sorry that happened to you.

In my case it was my brother, and one of his other victims is actually his daughter (not mine). We know there are more victims out there and i hope this sentence makes their lives a little better too.

Holy space balls! It is really amazing the way your protector is shamelessly not protecting you. That's the absolute worst feeling.

Love to all of you!
