how this whole process has changed you, how different you are today, and you described yourself, the outgoing, fun-loving person, kind of six years ago.
If this moment, that moment you ring your friend when you feared for your life is the absolute nadir, tell me, describe your, describe what Rhianna Moore was like that, what she was like in that moment, your emotional state, the type of person you were.
Yeah, at that lowest point.
I know, Rhianna, I've spoken to victims of abuse like this before.
And what some of them have said, and they said it's hard to explain to anybody on the outside who hasn't gone through it, is that they've become so... Part of the abuse is that your abuser makes you utterly dependent on them in so many ways.
And that there's this weird period afterwards where...
You know, there's relief, it's over.
But you kind of, on some level, you miss them or you miss their presence.
You know, they were around all the time.
Did you feel that?
You said about...
needing time to build yourself back up.
I assume that's done primarily through therapy and things like that, is it?
And how then did you feel during the legal process when the prospect of your therapy notes being introduced as evidence became a reality?
Yeah, and I know this is something we've covered on this show and there's a protest happening tomorrow on this front as well because lots of victims feel violated, I think.
Is that the word you use?
It's a violation, another violation on top of what's already happened to them.
So I'm sure we'll be covering it again.
I mean, ultimately, he pled guilty at the last minute.
Did you get justice?
