Incredible Injustice

I remember seeing Ashley’s reaction in court when she was sentenced. There was so much pain. These two are remarkable in their strength and ability to stay the course and keep the faith. The most difficult part about all of this is that none of it should have even happened. They didn’t deserve this. Those that refused to see the truth, should be removed from any ability to decide anything for anyone. I can’t imagine finding positivity as you come out of this, because they both did. Truly remarkable and absolutely heartbreaking.
Love this podcast
