Saskia

And everything went dark for me.

Since that morning seven years ago, Saskia's overcome something unimaginable, a betrayal that threatened everything.

It was a betrayal that altered her sense of reality.

It shattered her ability to feel safe in her own home, and even in her own body.

By signing her marriage certificate, Saskia had no idea all that she was signing away and that the man she was marrying would try to break her.

You're a dangerous person who preys on vulnerable and trusting people.

Your creditor might go up in good.

On our trip down to Maryland, we spent a lot of time with Saskia's friends.

She's had the same group since elementary school.

For the most part, they haven't ventured far from home, which is Montgomery County, Maryland, about an hour outside of DC.

This group around Saskia, they are her people.

They've been there since day one.

When we asked her friends what they love most about Saskia, so many of them pointed to one thing.

That Saskia laugh, that is the most genuine, heartfelt laugh.

Her laugh alone cracks me up.

That's Melissa.

And here's another friend, Carrie.

She has this, it's like not a cackle because it's beautiful.

She'll be like, I can't even do it.

But I think I was close, though.
