00:00My sister accused me of touching them. I didn't do it when I put that out there. I never touched
00:04anybody. So I came home from school and she said, you're touching my kids. And I'm eight years old.
00:08I'm like, I'm not touching anybody. She's like, yes, you are. She's going to keep asking me over
00:12and over until you say what she wants to hear. And I ended up getting beat for like five, six
00:16days,
00:16like in the middle of the night, she wakes me up to beat me. After school, I got beat. Before
00:20school,
00:20I got beat. Before meals, I got beat. After meals, I got beat. I ended up saying that I did
00:24touch
00:24them because I wanted the whoopings to stop because that's what she wanted to hear. She had
00:28called CPS and CPS came into the home and they ended up putting an alarm on my door.
00:33They had put a baby monitor in my room as well. And then months passed after this whole incident
00:37happened. And she ended up asking my siblings if I was touching them still. And they said, yes.
00:41I remember coming home from school. I was so scared. I was just praying to God. Like,
00:45I just pray. They just like tell the truth this time. They lied again on me. I didn't say I
00:49did
00:49it this time. I said, no, I stuck with it. And I got beat again for a couple of days.
00:53I got put into a
00:54foster home, into a group home, actually. So I was so sad. After that, I started to act
00:59out. I started to become very defiant. I started to fight. I started to run away. And I ended
01:04up getting put on probation at the age of like 13 years. I was originally placed on probation
01:09because of the charges of my sister. It's like a defender's jail in Texas. And I remember
01:14how to complete this, this thick booklet before I can go home on like defending.
