Today, knowing what I know and the experiences of the past three years, would I have said Yes? Yes, he pushed me from the moving car deliberately in an attempt to kill me. I think that would have been easier to live with than the fear and pain I face daily. Had I said he pushed me, I would have been able to escape sooner than thirtenn months and the chances for prosecuting him would have been greater rendering him unable to continuie victimizing. I was not his first victim. He has had so many other victims across the country that I know about both by his own admissions and those that came forward– in North Carolina, California, Alaska, Florida, on open waters, in the air — all unable to successfully prosecute him. I do want to be his last victim.
