Matt had been sexually abusing Alexis for fourteen years. It started after their son, Jimmy, had been born. After sexually abusing her with a mini-baseball bat, Matt gave her the option, "Okay, Alexis, you or the baby. Make your choice now."She pleaded with him. "Matt, please don't touch the baby. Do anything to me, but please, please don't touch the baby.""Okay, Alexis, one word to authorities, one sound comes out of you, and I go straight to that miserable piece of crap that came out of you. You know I can't control myself once I get that urge. Yeah, yeah, I know he's my kid, but I have no control, you know that. Watch what you say and do. It might turn out to be both of you when I get like this," said Matt.Just after he turned fourteen, Jimmy was killed in a drive-by shooting. Alexis was devastated. She missed her baby. She was heartbroken. It was a horrible way for it to happen, but it became her way out. Now all her fantasies of how to leave Matt could be realized.Will she make it? Will she be able to get away before the urge to use the bat on her again overtakes him? She knew if she got away and he found her, he would kill her. He had a girlfriend. In the past, it always saved her when he had a girlfriend. She didn't understand why that worked in her favor, but she'd take it.
