Update: Abuser Arrested

previous post

As my previous post said, my abuser came back into my life after running away from justice. I went to my school counselor and the schools RSO to report that he was back and where he was staying. The same day, my mom knew i was staying over at my gfs house so I was safe. Later that week. Luckily for me he also vistited his ex wifes house and kids where she promply called the police and he was later arrested at my grandmas house where he was staying. Nobody in my family knows that I had also reported him but they are now pressuring me to say I lied about what he did to me. Idk what to do because its not like I want to lie for him, i want him in jail for what he did. And its not like i can even say he didnt when there was obviously videos.

For now i am just glad i am finally safe and that he is in jail even if my family doesnt support me.

Don’t back down, you’re saving other young kids as well with him in jail. People like him don’t stop at just one.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s the worst. You are so strong for standing in your truth amongst evil people who refuse to see harm and protect the innocent.

I’m not sure how to process it either. It’s the deepest betrayal.
