My husband mocked me in court for having no lawyer—unaware my legal team and federal investigators were already waiting, and the evidence in my hands was about to destroy everything
ready to disclose something before he interrupted.
Behind the reports were dated photographs taken by a nurse named Teresa Bowman. During my final emergency visit, Teresa had asked whether I felt safe at home.
I couldn’t answer, but I began to cry.
She photographed the injuries with my permission and gave me the number of a confidential advocate.
