My sisterinlaw was raped

United States
May 15, 2007 1:54pm CST
I am very depressed today. I was talking to my brotherinlaw's wife yesterday about my wife's sister (B). She lives a great distance away from us. B was living in California years ago with her husband and two young daughters. The husband wanted B to leave so he could be with his girlfriend, but B refused. She wanted to stay with her two girls. Ger husband then hit her on the had with something. She did live, although she was blind for a while. She became mentally sick from this happening to her. She takes strong drugs, although she acts normal and has been living alone in her own little house. She now has esophical cancer. There was someone bringing her food; however, as I understand it, the person bringing her food raped her four weeks ago. She refused to open the door for him after that. Someone found her lying on the floor malnourished. She was so malnourished that she was put into intensive care in the local hospital. Why do people do terrible things like this?

ohh! Albert I am so sorry about this , as if she hadn't gone through enough that some sick minded person had to do this to her , to take advantage of any woman never mind someone who is sick and relying on you is to be lower than the low , I am sorry pal but I cant put down here what I really feel about this man, I will keep her in my prayers xx

I guess there are always people out there ready to take advantage of other people. In little towns everyone knows everyone else. If a woman lives alone and it is known that there is no man in her family to check on her, then the woman is in danger. This never happened when my brotherinlaw was alive and could go to see her.

I am so sorry that happened to your sister in law. People are so awful sometimes. It just blows me away about the things that are being done to totally innocent persons nowadays. I live in northern California, and some of the news reports about incidents around here are very upsetting. Just this morning, an elderly man in his 90s was beaten up by a carjacker....so ridiculous! I will keep your sister in law and you in my thoughts and prayers hon. Again, I am so sorry that that happened and that your sister in law has had to go through so much pain in her life.

Thank you so much for your kind thoughts and prayers. You are very much appreciated. I know that someone who likes cats has to be a good person. I guess that there are bad people wherever we choose to live.

Sorry to hear about your realitive. It sounds like she had been through heck and back. Now the rape gosh what some men do to have power of someone. I hope she gets better. I can understand why she did not call the police but I hope now she can so the pervert is off the streets. I wouder how many other women he has raped? He needs to be put in jail and the keys thrown away. Sorry again she has to go through this.

I really happen to agree with you. Whenever someone who rapes a person like this in such a terrible way will probably just do it again to other people when he gets out of jail someday.

I am so sorry to hear. Beeing raped is bad enough but she has also been through a whole lot more and it breaks my heart to hear stories like this. SHe will need alot of help to work through all this and she probably will be baadly scared for life. I am so sorry, I will light a candle for her tonight.

Thank you so much for the candle. We need all the prayers that we can get. May the Lord be with you also. When he raped her, he did not just do something to her, he took something from her: dignity, pride, and selfrespect. Even with the pills she will never be the same.

Oh I am so so sorry about this. It is inhumane what has ocurred, bothe by her ex husband and this beast who raped her. Is there anyone in the family that can take her in and protect her? Clearly she is not in a mental, emotional or physical state to protect herself, and what of these idiots? Haven't any of them been charged for their horrendous behaviour? I think you as a man of the family withhuman heart SHOULD RALLY ALL THE FAMILY ELATIONS TO FIGHT THESE B_STARDS AND GIVE YOUR SISTER IN LAW SOME SANCTUARY.AS LONG AS THEIR IS A SOCIETY THAT DOESN'T ACT AND DOESN'T CARE, THERE WILL BE TYRANTS THAT WILL TAKE OVER AND RULE. I will pray for you Albert and your family, I bet your wife must be very distrought at her sister's mistfortune.

hi there. this is very disappointing to hear. people now acts like an animal and i don't know what is actually in their mind when they do that kind of thing. i think the first person to blame is her ex-husband who have beaten her head in the first place and made her blind. if she is not blind, i think the second problem would never persists. Secondly i think your wife's sister should report to the local authority of the treatment she received from her ex-husband as well as the rapist. she deserves better than this. and also i suggest that u take her and let her stay with u. im sure she is not much of a trouble.

We tried to let her stay with us in the past, but she could not stand to be around other people all of the time. Her older sister is looking after her.

Albert, I'm so sorry that this has happened to your family. There are an awful lot of evil people in this world, unfortunately. I will definitely keep her in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery, both physically and mentally. She may not ever be the same again because of this and will need all of the love her family can give her. God Bless.

What a horrid situation. This is horrible for any women to go through but for a women who's already been through so much and had so many problems this is the worst possible. I will certainly keep your sister-in-law and the whole family in my prayers and also prayers for the sinful person who did this.

It's sad to hear about these things. Poor woman! now she needs to be with someone to take care of her. And what happened to the man, did they arrest him? He should be in jail for what he did.

Her older sister has taken her in after getting out of the hospital. (She lives in san antonio.) As of right, now I do not know what has happened to the man who did that to her. I think he is out on bond.

I'm really sorry to hear it. I believe God create human in good and bad. While good people busy to create friends, the bad one busy to fulfill their demonic passion. Don't worry, God knows what to do to these kind of people.

I have faith that God will take care of things in the next life, but I am very concerned with this evilman in this life time. God, for whatever reason, does not always protect us against evil in our lives.
