And I trusted him,” she said, describing one assault. “But then he pulled my shirt up and I was telling him to stop. He forced me to kiss him.
The girl’s mother testified that she learned of the assaults months after moving out of the apartment, when she walked in on her daughter appearing to try to take her own life.Advertisement “I recorded her because I wanted everyone to hear from her, the truth,” the woman testified. “C.J. won’t be able to touch anybody ever again. This much I know.”
