Appointment

My appointment was with a lawyers office and they had an electronic voice recorder and a video of me telling everything my uncle did to me that was sexual I told from when he first started kissing me to the last night I was there and it was uncomfortable and embarrassing they said I shouldn't have to talk to anyone about it again they needed it for court records I didn't want to tell them some stuff and I cried a couple times telling themĀ

I'm sorry it was so hard. It is highly unlikely, though not impossible, that you will need to be interviewed again. The fact that you were digitally recorded reduces the need for you to be interviewed multiple times by different professionals. No one wants you to experience additional trauma by going through the process more than once.

The judge ordered the prosecuting attorney to subpoena all witnesses. Therefore, the other children will probably be interviewed as well.

I still have a hard time saying what happened to me. Much less having to say everything. I still haven't said everything that's happened to me and it's been over a year.

Idk, because I know nothing much of the court system. Perhaps you could ask the people who you spoke to yesterday if you need to go to court when your uncle is charged """testify by video""" so that you won't have to be in the court room. I think Ladybug is right, if your uncles children are old enough, they too might have to give statements.

Keep remembering Everything you do is to Help Your Future and To Protect Yourself and Other Children...your uncle is a Very Sick Man and needs to be kept out of society and get help to stop the abuse.

Maybe not today, but some day when you have more life experiences of 'falling down and getting back up again''...right now as I see your behavior You Have Climbed A Mountain Honey and Are So Brave...yes tears will come, don't think of them as a weakness, it's your body''s way to release tension...wash away the pain and confusion so you can see more clearly!

God Bless You Over and Over Again and Hold You In The Palms Of His Loving Hands <3

Peace, Comfort and Healing Prayers to you Dear One <3 ml
