I will carry on

The rapist was paroled today. He served 4 and a half years of his 20 year sentence. I was shocked, I knew that he would eventually get parole, just not this soon. Well, I decided that I can live in fear or carry on with my life. I am still afraid of the possibility that he will find me. But maybe, he is reformed. I do fear retaliation. He and his ( Read more... )

Honestly, there isn't a day I don't think about it too. I just try not to let it get to me. I still am fearful that he will find me. I just have to move on, with what little sanity I have left.

4 1/2 years of a 20 year sentence?! That's fucking ridiculous. And the fact that they think YOU ruined HIS life? It was his decision to be a sexual predator. Idiots.

>_< It really angers me. Rape angers me. It's happened to me and it's happened to my best friend and nothing happened to the people who did it to us.

I don't believe the judicial system takes into consideration, what an impact rape has on the victims lives. They don't pursue enough of the reported cases. The ones that do get prosecuted only get a slap on the wrist. My rapist was a repeat offender, as most are. I just have a feeling he will do it again. Regardless of what people think not everyone can be rehabilitated. He didn't even go to a real prison. He went to a prison for sexual offenders. I so wanted him to be in the general population, other inmates don't take kindly to sex offenders.
I am so sorry that it happened to you and your friend. I am here for you if you ever need to talk.
