I felt so proud of myself and relieved that I had stopped my father in law, Scottie's attacks on me. He had a key to our house, my husband Alex had given him. Scottie used that key when Alex was out of town on business to rape me. He has done it three times. The last time he brought a friend. I was livid so, I went to Lowes and bought a security bar that you prop against your door.

I thought, keep your key, you're not getting in here again. Then, I told him I had it and he stayed away from me. I felt so much safer with the bar against my door. We usually went to their house every weekend for dinner unless Alex was out of town. Alex was an only child and he and his dad were really close. That's the reason I never told Alex. I didn't want to hurt him an I didn't know what he would do if he knew what a monster his dad really was.
