Virginia Beach Neighbor Helps Child Abuse Victim

November 1980: a time when my life was forever changed for the better, thanks to Sarah MacCubbins. Sarah intervened on my behalf. I was tortured with streaming hot water by my mother, Virginia Folta, when I was 15. The MaCCubbins were our neighbors in Pembroke Shores, in Virginia Beach. After hearing my screams of pain and pleas for help, Sarah and her husband came over to find me scalded and near unconsciousness. It took a lot of bravery for her to notify the police on her friend and neighbor, but thank heavens she did. Sarah called the authorities and my parents were charged with child abuse. The resulting court ordered counseling began to heal our family. Sarah you action was the pivotal point to helping me in a situation I did not understand or know how to get out of. I am forever indebted to you. Thank you so much, Krista Folta LaFever, MBA
