In her statement, Cassie says … “I hope that my testimony has given strength and a voice to other survivors, and can help others who have suffered to speak up and also heal from abuse and fear.”
She continues … “For me, the more I heal, the more I can remember. And the more I can remember, the more I will never forget.”
Cassie thanked her family and advocates for their unwavering support and said she was grateful for all the kindness and encouragement she received.
She added she’s “glad to put this chapter of my life to rest as I turn to focus on the conclusion of my pregnancy.”
He adds … “I did not save Cassie, as some have said. To say that is an insult to the years of painful work my wife has done to save herself. Cassie saved Cassie. She alone broke free from abuse, coercion, violence and threats. She did the work of fighting the demons that only a demon himself could have done to her. All I have done is love her as she has loved me.”
Alex concludes … “Her life is now surrounded by love, laughter and our family. This horrific chapter is forever put behind us, and we will not be making additional statements. We appreciate all of the love and support we have received, and we ask that you respect our privacy as we welcome our son into a world that is now safer because of his mom.”
