People who experience sexual assault in their younger years have a hard time dealing with the future both psychologically. It seems that there is just something about the long-ago incident that holds them back from moving on with their lives. Although there are many have successfully triumphed over their past, there are also countless untold stories. For victims of sexual assault, it is important to seek justice.
In the 1980s, Andrew Srb, 37 at the time of the award, was raped by his horse-riding instruction when he was 14. He further alleged that he was sodomized and assaulted multiple times by Robert L. Johnson, who was working for Quarry Town Stables. The defendant denied Srb’s allegations – pointing to the polygraph test which he passed. But the jury found Quarry Town Stables and Johnson jointly and severally liable. The plaintiff was awarded $1.2 million in compensation.

After all, it is easier to try to forget the incident than face the person who did you wrong in court. It takes a lot of inner strength to push through with a sexual assault case. That’s why many cases are only found out and resolved after many years.
