Kidnapped by a Paedophile

Alicia Kozakiewicz was 13 years old when she slipped out of her home in Pittsburgh to meet someone she had been chatting to online. What followed was a nightmare. Now 27, Alicia has made it her mission to protect other children from what she went through, and has had a law named after her in several US states. This is her story in her own words.

The horrifying truth please read it its important to know how easy it is for children and young people to be deceived.

One paragraph sticks in my mind:

"While I did what I could to survive no matter how humiliating or painful or disgusting I had no control over my fate. When I did fight him I ended up with a broken nose. And he'd already kidnapped a child, he'd already done unspeakable things to me, why would murder be something that he couldn't do?"

Alicia endured horrific abuse for four days and she knew in order to survive she would do whatever the paedophile wanted.

In that paragraph we can see the reality of child rape and also the beginning of a kind of brain washing. Not Stockholm syndrome but perhaps something related to it.   

Victims of long term child sexual abuse who have not had the benefits of specialist counselling may still bear the need to obey the person they see as having power over them.and that is very important and should be taken into consideration by everyone and particularly by those in positions of authority who have to find the truth.
