I’m beyond humbled & honored by all the people who w/ kindness & compassion commented, retweeted, liked, sent me DMs & even courageously shared their own trauma after I shared my trauma from being a victim of Jeffrey #Epstein. Please know I see & hear each & every one of you. I -
am sorry I’ve not been able to get back to everyone, but please know I’m working diligently to first follow everyone back & then reply to all the supportive, courageous comments/messages. While I’m struggling immensely w/ my #PTSD, I wanted to share how much your support has -
meant to me. Your words have been literally life saving & I’m SO grateful but also heartbroken to see so many others as victims of #trafficking like myself. Prior to finding my incredible attorney & coming out publicly as a victim of Jeffrey #Epstein, I felt hopeless, esp as an -
autistic girl but your words have shown me using my voice to not only share my story, but to lend it to so many victims who don’t have one & to educate autistic children & their families so not a single person will have to endure all I did at the hands of #Epstein will bring -
some light to this horrific chapter of my life. I will not stop teaching about the ways in which autistic people are at such increased risk & the ways they can protect themselves. Jeffrey #Esptein may have broken me in many ways, but your messages have taught me I can still make-
a difference & won’t stop until I do. Thank you to those who’ve written beautiful & often vulnerable messages. Please know I intend to reply to each one & I’m sorry I’ve not responded to everything yet. Please be patient w/ me & I promise I’ll get back. Thank you so, so much.

To even suggest such a thing says far more about you than me. It is due to those comments that I’ve made it my mission to educate about the dangers autistic people face when it comes to #trafficking - which is needed when 9 out of 10 autistic girls have been assaulted, the -
source for which can be found in earlier tweet. There was NOTHING I “liked” about being a victim of #JeffreyEpstein for 2 years. It left me w/ severe eating disorder, debilitating PTSD & shame, humiliation & a lack of self worth. Despite this, I’m doing what I can do in sharing -
Today, I had to take out “Jewish” in my bio, my mom removed our mezuzah from the front door & took down our decorative menorahs that we in windows. This was after I had received several hateful messages across different social media platforms & the reality of our location. (1)
While I live in a Washington DC suburb w/ a largely liberal population, the neighboring county has had many issues w/ flyers distributed for recruitment of a well known, racist, vile group. The messages & comments I received were filled w/ #antisemitism based on ASSUMPTIONS. (2)
The answer to the injustices suffered by #Palestinians is NOT to verbally or physically attack random Jewish people. I’m not in Israel. Please don’t assume all Jews feel the same. I’m fully against ANY human rights violations, both in the US & abroad. (3)
