Abuse victim spreads message of hope and healing
A physical and sexual abuse victim who turned her life around is calling for Bermudian women to stand up to their abusers and prosecute them. Johnnetta McSwain was abused from the age of five. One day, she decided would not become a product of her environment. Ms McSwain created Breaking the Cycle, Beating the Odds, an organisation aimed at helping young women who are victims of abuse.
