I'm sure all of you have read the headlines surrrounding this...

I don't think I have any words that can fully express the shock, anger, upset and disgust I felt to hear all this, it was like a horror story. I almost don't want to believe it was real.

Those people affected by this man's abuse, are going to have so many psychological issues, it's unreal. And his, 15 year sentence, if he's charged, not long enough IMO.

Anyway, all of these victims, really are going to need our prayers, and God's healing power and love in their lives so very much. And also full protection for them to prevent him abusing them or anyone else ever again.

I hope you guys could join me in praying for them. And for God to guide the court's decision. :crossrc:

I'm sorry, I'm from another country & did not hear the news about Elizabeth & her family.

Praying in agreement for Elizabeth & her family. :prayer:

Hmm, sorry I thought coverage on this was pretty much world wide. But no worries. If you just type the name on a search engine though hun, a lot of news articles will appear if you're interested. It happened in Austria. She was repeatedly raped by her father, gave birth to 7 of his children and imprisoned in a tiny cellar for 24 years, never being let out, and her and 4 of her children have not seen or been out in the daylight during this time.

The physical and psychological damage is pretty big :(

I wonder whether the now 42 year old woman will ever be able to regain a normal life now to be honest.

Thanks for praying though, and to everyone else who have and/or replied.

I'm quite surprised at the large number of people who've read this, but not responded though.
