From victim to victor! How one woman broke free... Growing up in a dysfunctional family where love was not to be found, Carol eventually became entrapped in a dysfunctional family herself. But her situation was far worse than the average one. Her story includes abuse, manipulation, prostitution, and murder. Many people who are trapped in such an evil web never escape. Secret Witness paints a vivid picture of it all and shows how she broke free from this dangerous, deadly lifestyle. Making headlines was never her goal, but when a murder planned by a powerful judge brought her to the forefront, Carol couldn't avoid it. There was no place to turn for help, or so she thought. Women who are caught up in this seemingly hopeless misfortune feel trapped into doing whatever it takes for them to be loved, not knowing there is an answer: an understanding heavenly Father who loves them unconditionally. "Carol's true story is based on her FBI statement given to me, police reports, courtroom drama, and her own personal life connections to the world behind, bringing them all to the bar of justice, helping convict a powerful judge of murder." -Robert K. Ressler, FBI Agent, working as a Behavioral Specialist and Criminologist, author of Whoever Fights Monsters , Sexual Homicide , and Justice Is Served "After many years of working with victims of crime. I am truly inspired by Carol's journey that has transformed her from victim to victor! Every woman will be touched by her strength, courage, and determination, which has taken her down the path to personal freedom, joy and inner peace." -G.
