A Horribly Forced Way Of Life

Elizabeth recalls the horrible treatment she got the day she arrived in her new “home.” She said, “I was begging and crying and just so scared. I remember thinking, I know what comes after a wedding and that cannot happen to me. That cannot happen.” But sadly for Elizabeth, that’s exactly what took place. She continues, “I remember him forcing me to the ground, (and) fighting the whole way. And then when he finished, he stood up, and I was left alone, feeling absolutely broken, absolutely shattered. I was broken beyond repair. I was going to be thrown away.”

And It Didn’t End There

As the days turned into months, Elizabeth’s torment continued day in and day out. She refers to the time as her “living hell,” and especially more so when Mitchell would look at the pornography. She reiterated, “Looking at pornography wasn’t enough for him. Having sex with his wife after looking at pornography, it wasn’t enough for him. And then it led him to finally going out and kidnapping me. He just always wanted more. I can’t say that he would not have gone out and kidnapped me had he not looked at pornography. All I know is that pornography made my living hell worse.”
