Laura Kaminski:  

was homeless, all he had with him was a guitar case, which had his art (dirty fairies and such) and his guitar. He appairentally needed a place to stay, and had found her. My father says that he protested against letting him stay...but I don't remember hearing that for myself...must have been one of those adult talks. Anyway, long story short, he started an affair with my mother without us noticing, and my father caught them one night together in their bedroom. He tried to throw Micheal out, but Micheal was stronger than my father...he threw my father down the stairs and out into the driveway. My parents divorced soon after...and I didn't see my father for almost 6 years. During the next two years, I learned what tourture was. Micheal did not like the fact that I did not want to call him "daddy", and thus, punished me. It started out with just the belt, a typical spanking and not a big deal. Once he realized I could take a lot of abuse, he came up with new punishments. He bought a half roughtwhiler half black lab male, and chained me to the basement floor with no clothes on. That floor was solid cement and he had special "devices" created in that basement to tourture me. Imagine those old iron wrist and ankle cuffs attached to iron chains. I was placed on my knees, which hurt like hell, and he would let his dirty dog loose. To keep me from fighting back, he would do one of two things depending on his mood. His first and favorite when he was in a good mood, would be to take his large pocket knife and either hold it under my throat or stab my side. The second was when he was angry and didn't want me to move at all, he had a hand gun that he would place the barrel at my temple with...and it was loaded too. I was also beaten with a cat-o-ninetail whip on a regular bases. It looks like i'm out of room now too...in a nut shell then: my mother didn't belive me. cops get involved, she ran.Four years of foster care. Father gets custidy of me by age13. started school with 5th.
