A call for help August 21, 2008
Posted by spacemom in : Current Affairs , add a commentOkay- I rarely do this, but hear me out of this.
A few weeks ago, a 9 year old girl had visitation with her father for her birthday. Her parents are divorcing. She lives with her mom, who is unemployed and doesn’t have a car to get a job. The 9 year old returned home and told her mom, and a family friend that she had been molested by her father. A call to the police resulted in a filed report. Child Protective Services have been called and a physical exam of the girl supported her claims.
The family has been trying to get a lawyer, an emergency protection order and just to get the father arrested. So far, the mom and grandfather have been given the run around. They are at wits end trying to support this girl, but the grandfather is barely scraping by himself, so he has no money for the legal fees.
The aunt of this girl is a friend of mine. She set up a paypal account under the email justice4zoe at gmail dot com. If you are so inclined, please consider donating something for the family’s legal fund. They want to make sure the father is arrested, tried and convicted. They want to help the girl start healing and the family to move on. And they want to protect any other girl from this man.
Thanks for reading this. It may be just a small amount for you and yes, we can’t give to everybody who asks, but I appreciate it if you can just consider donating to the legal fund.
Thanks
Nance
