About the Epstein Victims... [View all]
And yes, I used the word victims instead of survivors for a reason. There were thousands of girls (and some boys) that were preyed upon by these rich, sick creeps and yet only a very small number have courageously come forward. These women have found a way to survive their past and go on with their lives the best way they can. I applaud their bravery every time one of them speak out.
But I can't stop thinking about the many many more who maybe haven't "survived". Like Virginia D for one. How many more quietly committed suicide? How many of these girls turned to and became drug addicts? How many have supported themselves through prostitution? How many of them found themselves in abusive relationships because that is all they know? How many are suffering from never ending trauma while trying to keep their past a secret for fear of judgement or blame? Are any of them now homeless because once out of that horrible situation they weren't able to pick up and live "normal lives"?
What happened to the rest of these young girls (and boys)? I can't help but wonder...
