He murdered my daughter. He murdered who she was becoming, or meant to be. He murdered what "was" our family.'<br /><br />---<br /><br />Reading that, I thought that those who do not know any child victims of rape, might find what Lynda says to be hyperbolic, especially because she is blessed, inasmuch that her daughter is alive - but it is not hyperbole. Some victims appear to fare better than others, but where child rape is so destructive that parents reaching for adequate words can only describe it as 'murder', I think (whilst acknowledging there is no likelihood of it) that it should be recognised as a form of murder, as it is life-taking. It sounds crazy because the victim is alive, thus the ongoing underestimation, in some minds, especially of perpetrators, of the life-long effects of the crime. <br /><br />The parents may feel terrible for thinking as they do (it seems a derogation of the life of the brave, struggling child who remains, to think of her as also being somehow dead), but when so much of the life which previously was has gone, and when there are only occasional hopeful glimpses of what was, and what was meant to be, 'murder' becomes the only appropriate word, despite that it does not 'fit' the reality, as generally understood. It can be harrowing and guilt inducing for parents to find themselves considering their beautiful, violated and struggling son or daughter in such terms, but it is the most fitting term for those who know it - so much of the child's life and light has been taken away, 'snuffed out', and so much of the mind damaged that it is heartrending, yet even if the rape itself was prosecuted, for these further non-prosecutable crimes, which all too often end in the premature death of the victim, there is no 'justice'. <br /><br />--<br /><br />Kudos, Lynda - and for alerting his neighbours - you have been through so much.

He was indicted for aggravated rape but the prosecutors pled it down to gross sex so my daughter wouldn't have to testify in court and face him again. 2 psychiatrists had told me that if she was made to testify while looking at him, she may be lost to me forever because of trauma. So I agreed. There was no videotaping testimony or "shielding" of the child. This was in 1984 in Ohio. The maximum sentence NOW in Ohio for gross sex is TWO, yes 2 years. You go to jail longer for stealing a car here than raping a child. It's disgusting.lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493739512074677263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-84141389122632967992015-12-09T21:27:27.408-05:002015-12-09T21:27:27.408-05:00He only did 10 years for raping a toddler?

Diagnosis was PTSD from the abuse. ...continued...<br /><br /><br />Diagnosis was PTSD from the abuse. No mental illness. The psychiatrist had her drawing and showed me one. It was a rainbow like object. Not curved like a rainbow..straight. It was a penis. The shaft of the penis she had colored all the colors of the rainbow. The "head" was all black. It made me cry.<br />At age 13,(he is released from prison) she refused to go to therapy anymore and there began a life of promiscuity, drugs, alcohol, school failings, all the "usual". She ALWAYS has low lifes for boyfriends. She has had 2 children out of wedlock, a boy and a girl in that order. No fathers involved. She has at times sacrificed the son for her own needs. Drugs, procession of different men, feelings of complete worthlessness. She needed to be punished and she was damn sure going to make that happen. Losers, abusers. She then would "deny" with drugs/alcohol. Her antagonism towards her little boy was palpable. It was like she hated him and he knew it. When her son was about 6, she seemed to get her life together, going to college, working, making her bills..she had met a man that seemed to be kind and treat them both well. He was employed. She had her daughter at age 31 with this man ( later it was found he was dx. bipolar) Her daughter turned 3.<br />MY daughter fell totally, completely, apart. Emotional basket case to the point where I thought she would need to be committed. <br />The trigger was HER daughter becoming the age SHE was when molested. She saw herself in her daughter and how truly horrifying it was because she could see how tiny and helpless her own daughter was being only 3. It took over a year for her to pull out of that and get back on her feet. She recently obtained a good, full time job, and appears to be doing well. She will not or cannot verbalize the abuse, if it is brought up, or she is questioned, her eyes fill with tears but she does not speak of it.<br />This is what I know..<br />She is 35 now. <br /> DID is NOT schizophrenia...NOT EVEN CLOSE. It's moronic and dangerous to label them the same thing.<br />To deny, let sleeping dogs lie, etc. is NOT the answer either. It affects them whether or not they "remember" or not. Looking back, I feel it was helpful because it was not just her and I, we had someone that could talk us thru stuff, that cared about her, that worked very hard FOR her. It kept her alive instead of committing suicide.<br />He murdered her. He murdered my daughter. He murdered who she was becoming, or meant to be. He murdered what "was" our family. She was dead inside for most of her life because of him.<br />He murdered all my memories that I didn't have with my only child because of her PTSD, anxiety, hallucinations, nightmares,etc. <br />We (society and the legal system) minimize what has happened by calling it molestation instead of RAPE. She was raped when she was 2 1/2. ALL children are raped. Molesting sounds pretty "soft" to me. I loathe it but I use it myself because people can't take hearing the word "Rape". Maybe if we started calling it what it really is, something would change. We wouldn't have "towns" supporting the rapist and shunning the victim. <br />I don't know what the answer is, even after all these years. All I know is that she is a walking murder victim, and in a different sense, so am I. <br />Keep working Peter! You're doing great things for these little ones. I pray that you can save JUST ONE because that WOULD be worth it. <br /><br />Sidenote...when he was released from prison (it was before the registered sex offender laws and such) I went to the prison to see him release, followed where he went so I knew where he lived. Very small, rural town. I went up and down his street knocking on doors, the library, the grocery store, people on the street, telling them that a child rapist just moved into their neighborhood. Many were uncomfortable with me talking about it. It was something I felt i had to do. His new home's backyard was part of the elementary schools playground.lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493739512074677263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-68105260460098495152015-12-09T19:28:19.664-05:002015-12-09T19:28:19.664-05:00Peter...this teaching was excellent!

As a mother of a child who was repeatedly molested at the age of 2 1/2 or so, maybe the following info will be helpful to you or someone in the same boat.<br /><br />The moment I found out, IT STOPPED, THE POLICE CALLED, and he was arrested.<br />My daughter was DEVASTATED. He was her FRIEND. He could no longer be her friend because she told.<br />We immediately went into therapy and I was vocal about not hiding this and that it was not her fault. (I don't think she ever believed me)<br />She had to testify in front of a grand jury at age 3 to get the indictment for aggravated rape. He was also molesting a 4 year old boy who would not, and could not testify.<br />He went to prison for the max at that time.<br />My daughter continued therapy, sometimes a few times a week for a period, sometimes, once a month, but she was consistently in therapy for 10 years.From 3 to age 10 (in therapy) she seemed to do okay, popular, funny, played well with others, polite, respectful, everyone loved her.<br />About the age of 10 or so, she convinced herself that I was not her "real" mother. She didn't trust me, and she thought her real mother was dead. She believed that ME, her mother, after she would go to bed, would take off my "mask" and become this ominous entity. This went on for some time and was also accompanied by visual and auditory hallucinations. Usually of "seeing" people that were not there, in the dark, hearing their voices, they always wanted to do her harm. She had nightmares quite often.<br />Her therapist began to worry that she had an undiagnosed mental illness and that her behavior was not all due to the sexual abuse. We went to one of the top child psychiatrists, noted for her work in child sex abuse, to either obtain a diagnosis of a mental illness, or to find an explanation.lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493739512074677263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-87092565629763519452015-12-09T17:41:11.576-05:002015-12-09T17:41:11.576-05:00Wow, Peter!

This is a...Anonymous 10:40, please choose a name. <br /><br />This is a good question. <br /><br />Years ago, I felt that it was best to not awaken that which is dormant. In fact, I felt strongly about it. <br /><br />I dealt with some puzzling cases that told me otherwise. The last of these was a Presbyterian pastor. Of his three children, two were professionals and one was an addict with schizophrenia diagnosed. <br /><br />The difference was that the one was adopted who had been sexually abused as an infant, removed from the home, etc. <br /><br />The next case that made me think was a fantastic girl who was A student, well behaved, and so on, even as a teen, yet, once a teen, every year at a certain time, she would turn into the proverbial 'monster' of which so much testing and investigating was done by parents, medical doctors ,school officials and psychologists. Eventually it went to criminal background. She had been sexually molested by her bio father and the season corresponded with the season of acting out, only to return to normal after. (SAD was ruled out).<br /><br />These are not conclusive and only 2 cases, but it inspired me to not only research but to keep records of interviewing in sex abuse cases. <br /><br />Often, I had the psych eval while typing the transcript of the interview....over and over and over...hundreds of cases over the years. <br /><br />The statement analysis training met with those who insisted that "the brain remembers" and "the body knows" warnings. <br /><br />I look back many years ago and ache when I think of how a victim's processing was cut short in therapy because of the belief by the therapist to "let sleeping dogs lay..." I had agreed with her. The suffering continued and what I have heard recently has inspired me to make contact with the victim after all these years. <br /><br />I am not in favor of trying to force someone to remember, which suggestion alone, is powerful, but if and this is a big "if" :<br /><br />If there is some evidence of possible childhood sexual abuse, I think journaling is invaluable. This same "journaling" verbally, with a trained professional who may pick up the sensitivity indicators may help.<br /><br />But as you point out, I am open to those who feel to not remember is better....I am more addressing those who have expressed that "something is wrong" AND there is a growing body of literature (not studies, but books in which transcripts and/or quotes are) showing certain patterns emerging in language that may help. <br /><br />I know more about this than I wish I did, and have dealt with those who have various forms of DID. As the pedantic anonymous stated her "wish" that I would research before posting, as if she is an anonymous expert lecturing, I have dealt with too many who suffer from DID; not 'multiple personalty, or schizophrenia with "alters" but times of disassociation where the victim is plagued with intrusive thoughts--<br /><br />this is what I have found:<br /><br />those who suffer from this (not the schizophrenia or mimicking it with alters), in various ways, in which they literally feel a disconnect from reality and are hit with thoughts that absolutely intrude upon their lives, have found:<br /><br />these thoughts, like all thoughts, come from some where. <br /><br />Those who have processed these thoughts that I have dealt with, including working with their therapists and doctors, have all found improvement!<br /><br />Having said all of this, there is so much we do not know, and human nature is so very complex, that I remain open to your concept. Perhaps there are times where it is best left unsaid ;<br /><br />Life is troublesome enough without looking to find trouble where there is none. <br /><br />Does this make sense?<br /><br />Dreams are a multitude of thoughts, and they come from somewhere. If S/A can help, great, though I have high suspicion of "dream interpreters" who know so little about the sufferer: they often feed into selfishness, while padding their bank accounts. <br /><br />Those who do this type of intense work must keep very detailed records and note repetition, note symbolism and so on. <br />PeterStatement Analysis Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607372649929274491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-18676416919711333712015-12-09T10:40:12.961-05:002015-12-09T10:40:12.961-05:00Peter, if one was abused pre-speech but has no vis...Peter, if one was abused pre-speech but has no visual memory of it, isn't there a greater risk to their emotional health to think about it or try to remember it? After decades of suppressing memories to make the pain manageable, what happens to the woman who opens that door? I don't see anything good coming out of revisiting childhood trauma. <br />I know someone who dreamt about being underwater as long as she could remember. The dream isn't frightening; she's actually breathing and safe there with the sea animals approaching her and welcoming her to stay. This dream repeats every night and she looks forward to sinking into the water when she goes to sleep.<br />Later, maybe late teens, she has nightmares of being in a circle, surrounded by heavy wood doors and she has to choose which door to open. There's a terrible sense of what's behind the door she mustn't go through but she never gets to choose; one door (and they all look the same) always opens violently and she is sucked into the room with a wind that takes her breath away. Inside the room that is empty but for a dark closet she feels the wind swirl around her and the door slams behind her. She's in the presence of the devil, and then she wakes up.<br />Two very different dreams. One includes water and the other includes doors. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-54813671041133265762015-12-09T08:58:59.883-05:002015-12-09T08:58:59.883-05:00John mcgowan said...

Note "I'm sorry"<br />2. "very untruthful" is not "untruthful"<br />3. His sorrow is his son thinking something happened to him. This is to say the memory of what happened is something he may be sorry for. <br />4. He does not deny sexually abusing him. <br /><br />The subject molested him. He does not feel that what he did was"inappropriate" by becoming no longer a "stranger" to him. <br /><br />This is the justification and for law enforcement:<br /><br />NEVER ask "Did you molest?" <br /><br />He might even pass a polygraph with this question. <br /><br />You must ask according to his own language. If he touched the boy then this should be his question. <br /><br />In this case, the deception is obvious but the lesson should not be missed by polygraphers. <br /><br />Peter Statement Analysis Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607372649929274491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-15252726547351524352015-12-08T17:28:32.499-05:002015-12-08T17:28:32.499-05:00Vicki,

If the person can remember the dream, they are asked to try to write it and from there, we look for repeated words, etc. <br /><br />2 interesting cases:<br /><br /><br />1 was a rape case in which the accuser's word revealed it was a dream. This was by having her write exactly what happened. Because she was honest, she just wrote and the analysis showed physical impossibility. She had been raped in childhood and had some mental health issues. She was relieved, as were her parents. <br /><br />1 was a man dreamed about a murder case and he was asked to do the same thing. The analysis showed "experiential knowledge"...<br /><br />he was arrested. <br /><br />When someone writes out, to the best they can, the dream, it may help give insight. <br /><br />My area that I hope may one day benefit is in those women who were sexually abused pre-speech. This is tough. The body knows, the body reacts, but even during speech development, the woman has no real linguistic connection. <br /><br />It frustrates her terribly, so if she has a dream, we have her write it out. Then, examining language (as you pointed out, with doors), repetition, sensitivity indicators, etc...<br /><br />does this help?<br /><br />Thanks for interesting question. <br /><br />Peter Statement Analysis Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607372649929274491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-18606540230933388972015-12-08T16:42:27.301-05:002015-12-08T16:42:27.301-05:00Peter, can you elaborate on SA, linguistics, and d...Peter, can you elaborate on SA, linguistics, and dreams? Apparently the linguistics are in our language of dreams as well? I have not heard you mention SA association with dreams that I can remember in all these years. <br />Someone close to me told me about his dream the other day where he and his wife were trying to find a bedroom they could have sex in. Every time he opened a door, there was a bathroom of some kind,and another door to go through that led to another bathroom. They were all different, one had a shower stall, another a bathtub, another a whirlpool, one was full of towels. One door after another, a different bath setup. They never got to the bedroom.<br />My jaw hit the floor, and I hoped I didn't look as shocked as I was.<br /><br />Vickinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-52450312924443457182015-12-08T16:26:22.827-05:002015-12-08T16:26:22.827-05:00DID and schizophrenia are not the same thing.

Did you ever read this transcript of Davey...Peter, <br />Did you ever read this transcript of Davey's Grill story sermon? He seems to be quite sincere during this segment:<br /><br />"Now listen (claps hands), that’s my grill story. But I wonder, in here, how many of us, that’s our life story. I wonder how many of us, who would be honest. Now, I know you’re not used to being honest in church (makes face & sighs – time 8:19), but I wonder how many of us would say, hey man (claps hand), somebody did something to me, or somebody said something to me, that caused pain in my life and it dented me up, (time 8:32) and it hurt, and every time you think about that person, and every time you think about that situation, every time you look back on that, or you see the person at the grocery story, it reminds you of that pain. The feelings of that pain well up inside of you. And listen, I get it. There, there’s probably not one of us in here who have not been hurt at some point in our lives. <br /><br />And I want, I want to talk about, like, like, legitimately, how do we get over that pain? This is not going to be one of those messages where it’s just like (angry coach voice? Time 9:09) “You gotta get over it. You shouldn’t feel that way.” Because, I mean (claps hands), seriously, it’s real. There are some of us in who (9:16), here who have experienced pain, that, like, if you were to, tell us the story we wouldn’t believe it, because it’s so unfathomable how much pain you’ve had to endure from other people."<br /><br />My amateur analysis:<br />Someone abused him while he was face down (like the grill)<br />It was someone he saw at the grocery store<br />An authority figure disregarded his feelings<br /><br /><br />Bobcatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-4566069041679218372015-12-08T16:24:01.692-05:002015-12-08T16:24:01.692-05:00Peter, she was a janitor in 11 hospitals in 10 yea...Peter, she was a janitor in 11 hospitals in 10 years where they have US News and World Report magazine in the waiting room.
