Let's Go Delaware!
Help me fight for our children that are and have already been sexually abused.
Did you know that until 1972 the age of consent for sexual contact in Delaware was SEVEN?1
A state like that attracts a lot of predators. And what do you know, Wilmington, DE, currently has the highest number of convicted sex offenders per capita of any city in the U.S.2
This all relates to my own journey, past, present, and future. I've been relatively silent in public, but I'm ready to start speaking, because I am convinced the Lord wants me to awaken people through my ongoing journey to stop child abuse in Delaware.
This next legislative session I have a national leader that has contacted me and coming to Delaware! I am going to need people of Delaware to help make this happen! I will need other survivors and victims' testimonies! I have already been informed there will be press conferences and picketing.
From my discovery, we have an epidemic of sexual abuse in this state! Let's go Delaware! You may not even believe what's been happening to me.
