Friends, let me tell you a story of not just tragedy and heartbreak, but also of hope and strength. I can verify my story. I will provide the court case number, my subpoena, and my ID as proof upon request to the mods.

Sometimes, the people we talk about who hurt children are nameless and faceless to us. It’s easy to call for the firing squad upon them, and it’s easy to call for the obliteration of these sick monsters. But it’s not easy when a sick monster is in your family, and it’s especially not easy when your family is defending him.

My youngest brother molested my oldest daughter in 2017. She was 5. He was 19. It’s 2021 now, and the case still hasn’t gone to trial. This is in FL. I don’t know what influence Epstein had in this area of FL, but this case has been slow-walked by every DA and judge that’s been assigned to us. We want justice. And in doing so, it’s completely torn my family apart. We were all close. Raised in church our whole lives. Homeschooled. Conservative.

It’s been especially hard on me. I had to report the crime to police. I was, and still am, a mandatory reporter. I didn’t eat for days afterward. I couldn’t go to work. I started drinking heavily. And after a long time, I stumbled my way back to God and am blessed now with two additional daughters, my own house, and a wife that’s stuck by my side through everything. But it was hell getting here.

We have to protect our children, no matter the cost. It has cost me dearly, but I would do it again in a heartbeat. Do not let the offender or the group that they’ve manipulated to intimidate you like they tried with me. Stand for truth, stand for justice. If I can do it, so can you.
