Two years ago, today, I was raped.
July 22, 2014, I was sexually assaulted by one of my bosses. we all had a friendly relationship with the bosses, at a nice and laid back company. we would go out and drink after work, hang out, and we're all friends.
I had an argument with him on July 21, 2014
he came over to my house the next evening, as he wanted to talk about the argument and friendship. I sat with my neighbor & him, on my porch, avoiding his conversation, and just chatting with my neighbor.
he sat there quiet and angry. I say goodnight, go inside, take my sleeping pill, and go to bed. I wake to a weight on my bed. he's sitting on my bed, while I sleep. I froze. he started touching me. I can't move. I feel his weight on top of me. I'm asleep, or awake, but drugged by my sleeping pills, and I can't move.
he leaves. I wake the next day, fuzzy headed, sore. what happened? tiny pieces of the puzzle come together. I'm wearing the same dress I went to bed in. I go to the hospital, have a rape kit done. there's evidence of sexual assault. they take my dress.
I get a protective order. he resigns from work. I press charges. I move. my life is forever changed.
two years later. today. the case still has not gone to trial, nor has he accepted any plea deal. I'm not giving up, and not dropping charges. I have ever shred of proof, including dna evidence, a rape kit, and text messages of him "apologizing" for what he did.
he will pay.
