Teen sues dad for abuse
Teen sues dad for abuse

BOUNTIFUL Utah (ABC 4 News) – A high school student is taking on her dad in court.

Christine Logan filed a civil lawsuit against her father, Dave Logan and others.

The case was filed in U.S. District court and for now Logan is acting as her own attorney.

...

“I have two boxes of medical evidence that will help prove those injuries were not just a fall on the steps,” she says.

5. What happened to her is horrible
Seems like there should be criminal charges actually based on the injuries.

6. Most excellent...
It's a good thing when abusers are exposed. They pick children because they
rarely tell--and are usually so damaged that they don't have the confidence
to fight back.

Kudos to this incredible survivor. May her courage be an inspiration to others
who are experiencing abuse.
