Meet Marita Murphy:
Victim. Survivor. Advocate.
This is part 1 of Marita's story.
She was initially sexually abused by a teenage boy & friend of the family, meant to care for her. Her first night in that home, age 7 changed the trajectory of her whole life.
What helped her through was being believed and returned to her mothers care, her love of horses and books. for more on her story and to understand what she is currently facing, you can reach out to Marita on murphymarita85@gmail.com and watch her documentary here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh1ODu2JdSA
