My father sits me down maybe a year after the rape, 13, and says, I can't believe what I'm hearing about Dennis Pegg.

He's like, he was taking, he worked, he was a lieutenant in the sheriff's department and he worked at the county jail.

Sheriff's officers either work the jail or they're working out on the street doing criminal stuff.

He worked at the jail.

And my father goes, it's spreading all around Stillwater that Dennis has been taking home young inmates from the jail to mentor them.

And he's raping them and molesting them when he gets them home.

Like these kids, you know, like 18, 19, 20 drug addicts, usually he would say, come back to my house.

Let me let me mentor you and take care of you.

And he would get them there.

And in the middle of the night, he would pounce on them.

And some didn't fight off the pouncing.

Others ran out of his house.

And in the middle of the night are hitching through our little one-horse town of Stillwater.

And the residents are picking these kids up.

And they're like, this guy just...

me in the middle of the night like he told me uh he would give me a place to get my my feet back under me and in the middle of night he attacked me and that spread around like wildfire and this is about a year after the yeah okay and did you not see him in that year afterwards

Um, what had happened is he raped me in between.

Back then they built a new high school and they took seventh and eighth grade from the elementary school and put it in the high school.

So this was between sixth and seventh grade that summer.

That winter for Christmas, I got a dirt bike.
