The mother was Canvassing the fact that the stepfather had orally copulated us, it started around the age of 2 years old, the man we called Cal often he came to the home while the mother was in local taverns . She never even reported it to the police! There was vaginal sores we tried to talk about the abuse initially but the mother told us not to speak a word of it ever again so the abuse continued, and worsened . Around that time we were taken to a hospital for a broken arm that wasn’t discovered for over 3 months after the arm was initially broken . From then on we kept our mouths shut , and the sisters too never told about the man because he was abusing them as well . After that a group of men raped anni she was 6 she was cut vaginally and her stomach the scars remain . There was many incidents of sexual and many of physical abuse , the mother claims she was aware 2X of the abuse and failed to notify anyone or obtain medical attention , or provide mental support ! this makes the mother Guilty ! The mental abuse , and spiritual abuse was the worst we were constantly told how evil we were that we would burn in hell , mom called us a slut ***** ***** bastard and so much more.. One thing I could rely on is the beatings there we were 6 of us oldest to youngest , all of us forced to be nude , I watched as my mother beat each of us until there was blood or welts ,once I watched the mother kick the sister so hard her upper leg was cut wide open , it needed stiches but the mother wasn't about to get it taken care of . I wished I was first in line that way we wouldn’t have had to watch . usually it was for something as trivial as borrowing her spoon . We decided from then on she would never see us cry no matter how bad the beating was. The Twin overpowered us and the mother allowed it , he chased us through the house kicking hitting we would wake up with the brother opening the mouth and spitting in it .Once the brother and his friend held us down tearing off the clothes I don’t remember what happened after that . For long periods of time we lacked basic essentials such as water electricity gas or food . The grandmother would get food behind the grocery stores for her pigs and that’s what often we would eat .Many times we were locked in a closet . And the basement too, once the mother came home drunk and put the twin brothers head in a sink full of water he nearly drowned but I grabbed the mothers leg she kicked me and then released the brother . There is a scar on our for head where there has been stitches we believe we were stabbed there but still we are not sure ?? The home was very unsanitary cockroaches so many of them everywhere and big black bugs that came up from the sewage . At a very young age the mother was drinking with a group of men she bent our fingers back until they made a cracking sound I cried out in pain and I watched as the adults broke out in laughter not understanding why ! The grandfather was a polygamist he was another one of the perpetrators , as a young child we had such a fear of vampires this I do not understand maybe one day ? when we were not locked in a closet or the basement we took every chance we could to get out of that house , we looked around on the ground for pennies so we could buy and ice cream cone ,there was an old man that lived next store and he said " If you kiss me I will give you a quarter" , it became sort of a ritual and then one day he picked me up carried me to the back of the house he was so strong and he stuck his tongue down my throat , then everything went blank .This is a small amount of our story , the abuse happened daily .:rolleyes we havn't ever told anyone this much about ourselves because the embarassment and shame and lack of full memories .we have DID because of such traumatic events throughout childhood .
