At the age of six, Janelle hated her blood so much that she wanted to do heavy

damage to her body. She hated the fact that she was related to a rapist, better

known as the man who helped bring her into this world-her own father.

She experienced her first sexual encounter with her father at six years old

and was brave enough at eight years old to have her father punished and

sentenced to life with parole. Her life only took a turn for the worst as a

teenager-committing crimes, going in and out of jail, and the emotional

denial of rape. The experience ruined her and she failed to realize how it was

shattering her behavior and life.

She still suffers the emotional pain and is still healing daily. She was the

innocent victim of a violent crime and sadly, the reaction to her personal

trauma came with a price that she had to pay.
