Eric was sentenced to 4 months in jail and 5 years probation after that.

I arrived at court at 9:30. Court was scheduled for 9:00am. My case finally came up at around 11:30am. Before it was my turn I puked. I was so nervous. I read my statement with no tears but a little trembling of the voice. After I was done and had sat down I cried a little. Then the lawyers did their stuff. Vicki (attorney and very nice lady) had told me that it was a fifty fifty chance that he would either go to jail or get probation so I was prepared. The judge sentenced him to 4 months in jail and 5 years of probation. She explained to me why and I understood that that was what she had to do. I still would have liked him to be put away forever though. On the way out, Eric's mother, Cleo Letford called me a Bitch. My reaction was so slow. I didn't even hear Melanie (my adoptive mother) tell her that was not necessary at all. As I was still registering what she had just said to me I slowly turned to her and said "Did you just call me a bitch" I said it very slowly still in shock. After I said that I was pushed out of the court room by Vicki and Melanie. Other wise I would have jumped her. I was reacting way too slowly. I walk out in tears and Joel a reporter asks me a question. I told him not right now I need a cigarette. It was VERY bad timing. After I was smoking he asked me some more questions. I gave him my phone number and said I would talk to him more after I had calmed down more.

He's doing a story on me and it will come out in STL post dispatch MAYBE on Tuesday. I gave him permission to use my name and a picture of me.
