Update: Nex Benedict was a survivor of child abuse- Locals contacted me early on & I connected w some family about this difficult part of the story. Part 4- Personally, I have a friend who was sexually molested by her father as a child. She has a family now. Owns her own business, and is sober. There is recovery & a life going forward. I hope reporting this hard truth will offer strength and shine a light on the struggle of survivors. Here on the islands, survivors have shared with me this mantra: "Silence hides violence." Rest in love #NexBenedict, felt by all those touched by your passing- those who knew you as Dagny, and by any other name. May we come together to make sure this never happens. And those seeking hope, have the support they need. That our youth are compassionate to those who may be different, or suffering silently. Please mahalo programs like 'Bikers Against Child Abuse' in the work they do.
