At that moment, the abuser entered the room. That moment was truly terrible, as he told it: “The door opened and that person came in naked. I left the binoculars, and that person was coming towards me.”

She then asked her abuser, “How dare you” doing all this, She. “I wanted to erase the whole thing from my mind and body and move on. This system never once came to help me. So I had to be strong on my own,” Shields said.
