She wrote her own Victim Impact Statement without any grown-up assistance so that what is being convened in the Courts were specifically those thoughts and emotions from an individual of her age group.
She attended the sentencing herself and to court for the very first time to read her own Victim Impact Statement she wrote recently at the age of 14 years which ALSO incorporated an Victim Impact Statement he also wrote at the age of 11 years old with the guidance of counselors through sessions she had independently of my own and my partner who is her mother.
I believe her motivation, amongst facing the accused TEDEUSZ (Ted) USTASZEWSKI was to say in her own words how angry she was at him for his participation in the International Parental Abduction / Kidnapping Alexander & Christopher Watkins, it addition to also helping her own emotions for closure as she had NO say in over the last 3 years on this case.
She wanted to share with the Judge that this type of crime ALSO affects not only the custodial parent (Left Behind Parent) but also all extended family and step-siblings.
My sons considered a sister and she considered herself as a sister as we all lived together as a family unit since 2007.
I believe her words were important for the Court and Judge to hear to shed some light on how all of this affects children or (Left Behind Siblings) as this is not something that is public in these cases or rarely is there a family unit situation that is comprised of two families living together and a child abduction occurs.
