Low Priority Case


Your morals are low. Your still not on death row. Probation doesn't make crimes stop. I'm no cop. Happiness you can't buy. Not all criminals die. I was afraid. We never got saved. There was no where to go. There was no one to know. I knew it was & is wrong. At 12 I was weak not strong. I had no where safe to belong. I had no friend not even in the end. No one to call or send. I had to wait until he was gone & it was over. It took to long before I told her. No one wants to hear what's true. Only me & my sister knew. The SDPD don't protect & serve. Pedofiles never get what they deserve. Author Notes : A true story. Police said 20 years later it was a low priority case & that it would take a really long time, so I never reported it. © Harmony Sapphire . All rights reserved
