Grunt,
Regarding the radio interview Erica had, I can share a few details
Erica was interviewed by a spanish radio staition, she was asked by her lawyer if she wanted to do the interview, both Erica and her lawyer thought it would be a good thing , but not until after the sentencing.
When Manuel Beliz was convicted of two counts chid molestation and two counts of child rape and sentenced to 11 and some years it was then that Erica did the phone interview with the radio station.
In that interview she was not allowed to say Manuels name, she did mention she had no support from old friends in Othello and that she was shocked to see how so many were there to support (Manuel).
Erica did mention she was a Jehovah's witness,and that (Manuel) was a JW as well, and would be sitting in jail as one for the next 11 and a half years. I personally could tell you one thing she was very carefull on what she said because she was a loyal JW and did not want to stain "Jehovah's" name.
The main topic of the interview was how she was able to come foward with what had happened to her and to encourage others who have been raped or molested to come foward with any kind of abuse and the steps they can take.
What gets me is Nytele's comment on the fact that the cong. did not support her because she was on the radio and they felt that Erica had some how stabbed them in their backs, how could that be if she did the interview after the trial? Well I guess that will remain a mystery.
This is such an encouraging site for Erica and I hope that anybody else out there who has gone through a similer experience knows that we are there for them too, It's a hard journey but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
