Answer:
I got a phone call one night when my sister and I were home alone. My mom called from the court house saying my dad has been acquitted after being accused of assaulting a Girl Scout when he was the troop leader.
I can’t even describe the amount of relief I felt. I don’t even remember it. I kind of just sat right there on the kitchen floor when I heard the news that it was finally over. No more visits from the police or detectives, no more hate comments under my dad’s mugshot that’s been posted to Facebook, no more confusion. It was a two-year fight to prove he didn’t do it.
This girl told police that the assault had been happening for five years, but her story started falling apart the more times she told it. This girl was one of my sister’s friends. We took a week off of school during the final days of the case while my aunt, uncle, and a few people who are close to our family took the stand.
We were told to stay home in case they wanted my sister or me to testify or give a statement. It was the fourth day of sitting at home anxiously while everyone else was at the court house when the jury finally came to a decision. The jury never got past a “maybe,” I’m not sure what it means but that’s what I read in the article that was posted about Dad’s case.
I was so excited to return to school the next week. We took that Friday off because there wasn’t a point in going to school for a single day. Unfortunately, we never actually went back to school. The schools closed that same week we were supposed to return because of the pandemic, but at the time, I was too happy that they weren’t going to take my dad away to care much.
I’ll never forget that night even though that moment was kind of a blur of my mom crying over the phone that the nightmare was finally all over.
