Complaint from Perv!! What a joke!
Midweek I had a telephone call from the Police, stating that my abuser had complained through official channels that: 'I was discussing him within the local community, trying to drum up support against him'.
I gave an official response - it's the best laugh I've had all week. I wondered when the dirty tricks would start, but thought they would at least wait until we got to court.
You may remember me telling you that when he was in court charged with abusing me, the details were printed in our local community newspaper on page 3 (delivered free to every home in the town).
This led to another 'survivor' coming forward and he was recently charged with new offences against this other person. I thought the local reporter must have missed court that day as there was nothing in the free paper about it that week, or the next.
One day after 'officially' responding to his complaint, I came home from work to find the free paper for this week in my letter box.
Guess who made the star topic on the front page? Ha Ha HA. Complain about that!
The only downside is that it's now confirmed in my mind that he was active for some time.
I don't believe that I was first (1969). The new charges are from nearly a decade later. I feel sorry for all of those other boys out there that may be suffering in the dark.
What I console myself with is that I am finally the one that has stopped him in his tracks. I've allowed at least one other person to come forward and ease their mind. Now he has made front page news, maybe others will come forward.
Why on earth do I want to discuss him locally - I am currently anonymous to the community (although people are probably playing a guessing game).
My time has come! ....Rik
