Crowdfunding for a girl abused by her father (8)



[ad_1]

His own father probably abused an 8-year-old boy for years. Despite the information, the KESB Dorneck-Thierstein manager should not have acted. When Nathalie talks about the abuse in a therapy session in child psychiatry in April of this year, the next fatal official ruling occurs.

Instead of notifying the police authorities, the KESB Dorneck-Thierstein informs the father and the assistant twelve days after the girl’s statements. The suspect has about three weeks for the evidence to disappear before a search of the house is carried out. The man was already known to authorities due to multiple reports of threats, regulatory complaints and a criminal complaint from December 2019.

Criminal proceedings against those responsible for the KESB and the father continue. But the situation for Nathalie and her mother remains precarious.

Costs of 94,000 francs and a subsistence-level life

They live on a subsistence level, the costs of counseling and legal representation are high: “I am entitled to free legal assistance from KESB. However, only the minimum is paid, and that is simply not enough in our case ”, said the mother to“ 20 minutes ”.

That is why money is now being raised for Nathalie and her mother through crowdfunding. According to the Wemakeit website, the target of the crowdfunding is 94,000 francs, which covers the costs of legal representation, care and therapy for one year. The money collection was started by friends of the mother and an association called “Together against child abuse.”

According to the Victims Aid Law, the family would have the right to maintenance, depending on the economic nature, but that could take a long time and depends on the court, criticized a lawyer involved.
