Chapter 10 Saving Katy

Olivia started to drive up to Katy's house. The car stopped and she
got out. She knocked on the door. Sarah opened the door. Sarah looked
up at Olivia and said, "Olivia. What are you doing here?" Olivia
looked at her and said, "I left something very important of mine, and
I also need to talk to you." "You left something? You could have sent
over that information by messenger, and I would have had it sent
over." "Oh I know, but like I said, I also really need to talk to
you." "Talk to me about what? You know that if Erin sees you here,
that there's going to be trouble." "Is that what this is about? Are
you afraid of your husband?" she said soothingly. Sarah said quickly,
"Olivia I am not afraid of Erin. It's just that Erin is Katy's father
and he is just trying to protect her." "Protect her from who Sarah?
Me? Or is he trying to protect her from the truth?" she said
soothingly but to the point. "What truth Olivia? Katy is fine." "Well
I don't think that she is Sarah." "And how do you know that? We get
letters from the school all of the time, and Katy is fine. She is
doing really well in this school, even she says so in the letters."
Olivia hesitated for a moment, "Well not in her letters to me." Sarah
shot up. At this point, Olivia was pushed back out the door by Sarah.
She said angrily, "Katy's letters to you? She is not aloud to write to
you, or even see you. The school knows that." "Right. the school does
know that. Katy just has good friends. You know what she is trying to
tell me Sarah. Katy is having a hard time in this school, and you know
that she is having a hard time at home too." "What are you saying?"
Sarah said curiously. "Sarah your daughter needs help. And I'm trying
to help her, and you, and your whole family. Let me help you." Sarah
said very angry now, "Katy, and none of us need your help. Get away
before I call the bishop." "Mrs. Fitch-Talaver, I am the police, and I
am trying to help you and your family from anymore danger. You don't
have to be afraid anymore. I will keep you guys safe from him, from
Erin. I promise you." "There's nothing going on in this house, or at
Katy's school Detective Benson. And believe me, when you leave this
house, you are never coming back here, and you are definitely never
going to se Katy ever again." A second later, Erin walked in. He saw
Olivia. He said angrily, "Detective Benson, you are not welcome
here." Sarah put a hand on Erin's shoulder and said, "Please, she was
just leaving. She just came to get something that she left. She said
that she needed it for a case that she is working on." "Well. Do you
have what you need Detective Benson?" "Yes Mr. Fitch-Talaver. I do
have what i need." "Good. Then you'll be leaving now." "Yes. I'll be
leaving now." Olivia walked out the door, as she watched Sarah gently
close the door behind her. Olivia got into her car and started
driving.

Olivi walked into the station house and over to her desk. A minute
later, the phone rang. "Benson." "Hi Olivia." Olivia said surprised
and in sort of a whisper, "Katy." "It's me." "How are you? Where are
you? Are you okay?" "I'm calling you from a pay phone, and I am
camping on a camp ground. I'm camping in Camp Meadows. Have you ever
heard of it?" "No I haven't. So how is it? Are you having fun?" "Yeah.
It's okay. Did you get my letter?" Olivia said sadly, "Yes I did."
"What's wrong Olivia? Did I do something wrong?" "No. No sweetie. You
did nothing wrong." "Then why do you sound so sad?" Olivia thought for
a moment. "It's just that your letter is so sad." "You told your
captain about it didn't you, and he didn't believe me." "No. It's not
that he doesn't believe you. It's that he doesn't believe me."
"Believe you?" "Yeah. He thinks that I am just trying too look for
ways to save you." Katy thought to herself, and wished with all of her
heart that she could tell Olivia what she was about to say, "But your
not. They're real. They're real." She wanted to ask her, "Do you
believe me?" "Of course I believe you." Then back in reality Olivia
said, "I'm going to give you my home and cell numbers. You call me if
you need anything. Can you ask Christina if she'll write it down for
you?" "That's okay. I can write it myself." "How sweetie?" Olivia
asked curiously. "I can use my slate and styolis." "Your what?" "My
slate and styolis." What is that?" "It's a medal thing that looks
like a slate, of course. Anyway, it's a medal thing that has a bunch
of squares that are shaped like six dot Braille cells for each square.
Then you have this little hand held puncher that is no bigger than a
pencil. You use that to push into the squares to make Braille dots.
The paper comes out the other side when you are done." Olivia smiled
in amazement. "Olivia, i don't have much time left. My minutes are
going to run out," Katy said hurriedly. "Okay. Sweetie. Here are the
numbers," Olivia also said hurriedly. Olivia quickly gave Katy the two
phone numbers, as she quickly brailed it down using her slate and
styolis. Olivia and Katy both hung up their phones.

Eliot walked into the squad room. He walked up to Olivia. "Hey Live.
Where've you been?" "I just went to see the Fitch-Tallavers." "for
what?" he asked curiously. "I needed to get a book that I left there."
"Oh come on Live. We both know that you went there for a different
reason than that." "No, I really did leave a book there, but you're
right. I also did want to talk to them, especially Sarah." "You know
that Sarah isn't going to say anything against her husband or how they
are raising their children." "You don't have to tell me that." "So
what happened?" "I just told Sarah that I was only there to help and
protect her and her entire family." "How'd she react to that?" "Not
well. Katy called me." "What? Eliot said also as surprised as Olivia
was when she got the call. "She say anything?" "No, but I could tell
that she wanted to. Her letters are all I need to hear." "You know
that that's not enough Live. I'm sorry." Olivia got up. "Where ya
going Live?" Eliot asked concerned. "Home," Olivia said tiredly.

When Olivia got home, she saw on her coffee table, the brochure to
Katy's school. She sat down on her couch and opened the brochure. She
thought, "How did things get like this?" She knew. She knew exactly
how things got like this. She looked through the school's schedule.
She said to herself, "It's visiting day tomorrow at Katy's school."
She knew that she wasn't aloud to, but she knew that she had to go
there. She knew that Katy's parents were probably going to be there,
but she just had to see Katy.

Katy's friends and her had been getting ready for visiting day at the
school. They had been helping teachers to put out things on the tables
such as art projects that they had done, food of course, and other
things like that. Katy was praying for Olivia to come, but she knew
that it was impossible. Olivia wasn't aloud in the school, but she
still prayed for it. Katy went to sleep that night, praying for Olivia
to just be there.

Katy woke up the next morning feeling very happy. She just knew that
she was going to get her wish. What she thinking, she thought. Olivia
wasn't going to be there. She was being silly. Olivia called in sick
that day from SVU. Captain said, "Olivia called in sick today Ell, so
you'll have to work the cases today with Munch since he is working
with Lake." Eliot said with a worried look on his face, "I'm really
worried about her Captain." "I am too Eliot. She just can't except the
fact that Katy isn't being abused." "I know. It's going to destroy
her." "I know. She can't concentrate on her work when all she's
thinking about Katy." "I miss my partner Captain." "I know you do.
When Olivia gets back, I'm going to have a serious sit down with her
and get this whole thing straightened out. You'll get your partner
back Ell." "Thanks Captain, and I hope you're right."

Olivia drove in her car and started driving to the school. She
thought a lot about on the drive over. She thought about Katy. She
thought about Katy's parents, and how she was going to explain her
being there if they were to see her there. She hoped that that
wouldn't happen. She hoped that things would go smoothly. She just
wanted Katy to be saved. Olivia pulled into the school. No one saw
her. She parked her car far enough away that no one would see her. She
got out of her car and started walking. She went into the court yard
of the school, which was where most of the party was taking place, but
people were everywhere in the school. A woman came up to her. She
said, "Hi. My name is Sharlyn. I'm Christina's mother. She's told me a
lot about you and how you want to help Katy." "I want to help her, but
I'm having a lot of trouble." "I know. I think that I can help." "How?
And it's nice to meet you too." "That's okay. Well, Christina has
talked to me about a lot of things. She has told me that she is being
abused at this school. She told me that you are a police officer." "A
police officer who has lost her privileges here." "Oh I know.
Christina has told me all about that too. I think that that is crazy.
You are just trying to help Katy." "You and me both. I wish other
people felt the same way that you do. I wish other people knew that
she needed help too, her and Christina and God knows who else who is
at this school." "I know Detective Benson. What can we do?" "Please
call me Olivia." "And please call me Sharlyn." Olivia gave Sharlyn a
reassuring hug. Sharlyn walked over to where Katy was standing. "Hi,
Katy. It's Sharlyn." "Oh I know. Hi. How are you?" "I'm good. Where
are your parents?" "They're in my bedroom looking at all of my
projects tha I have been working on." "Oh okay. I'm going to go and see
them." She meant distract them so that they wouldn't come over there.
"I have something to tell you Katy." "What do you have to tell me?"
"Olivia is here." Katy's whole face lit up. She said in excitement,
"Olivia! Olivia!" Olivia said also in excitement, "Katy! Katy!" They
ran into each other's arms and just stood there. Olivia said smiling,
"How are you? How are you?" "I'm okay, but I'm better now that you're
here." They hugged each other tighter. All of sudden, a man walked
over to them. He said, "Hey Katy. How's it going?" He then put a
possessive like hand on a very frightened Katy's shoulder. Katy just
started taking off running. Olivia yelled, "Katy! Stop! Stop! Katy ran
and tripped down ten stairs, and then she slid and hit her head on a
meddle wall. Olivia ran after her, but she wasn't the only one running
after Katy. Katy's mother was right beside Olivia, running toward Katy
as well. Olivia picked up Katy into her arms. Not a second later,
Sarah grabbed Katy from Olivia, and handed her to a female nurse. As
she grabbed Katy from Olivia she said, Olivia, give her to me!" Sarah
said to a female nurse, "Get her inside." While all of this is going
on, Olivia could hear Katy screaming, Olivia! Olivia! Olivia!" Olivia
said, It's okay honey," as she let go of Katy as Sarah grabbed her to
give her to the nurse. After that happened, Olivia heard Katy scream,
"No! No!" Sarah said breathless, "Olivia, what's the matter? What you
doing here?" Olivia said also breathless, I'm here because your
daughter needs help. I talked to Katy's friend Christina and a few
other people and." Sarah broke in and said, "Olivia you did what?"
"These people know what they are talking about," she said frustrated.
"They have a lot of experience with the school," she said still
frustrated. Sarah said directly, "Olivia, leave us alone." "Sarah your
daughter needs help." "Olivia get away before I call the police."
"Mrs. Fitch-Tallaver I am the police," Olivia said angry. "Then it's
very lucky that we have our own police and security!" Olivia
reluctantly walked away, and went back into her car. She drove
straight home. She had no idea what awaited her the next morning when
she would go back to the station house.

When Olivia got up the next morning, she got ready, ad then she drove
over to the station house. She walked in, and walked over to her desk
where she saw a flashing light on her phone. She said quietly to
herself, "There's a message." Eliot walked in and up to her and said
sounding upset, "Morning Olivia." Then Munch walked in and said in his
usual cynical self, "this doesn't look like it's starting out to be a great day."

Olivia was listening
to her messages, and after Munch said what he just said, Olivia said,
IAB's called me already, three times." Then eliot said, "What's
wrong?" Olivia then said as she hung up her phone, "Please, don't
ask." Then Captain Cragen stormed out of his office. He said angrily,
"Detective Benson, you're on desk duty!" Olivia said, "Captain, I
can explain." Then Captain Cragen said still angry, "Olivia if you
can't follow my orders on the street, then you can try keeping my file
straight." Eliot said in Olivia's defense, "Captain." Still angry
Captain Cragen then said, "Olivia I told you, I asked you, no I begged
you for your good to let this thing with Katy go, but you wouldn't. So
in case anyone here has Detective Benson's hearing and obsessive
problem, read my lips and take what ever necessary medications, but
now one is to go Katy Fitch-Tallaver again. That includes her family,
school, and any employees they're in." Then Olivia said pleading with
the Captain, "You can't do this. Somebody's gotta help her. I know
that she's in trouble Captain, if you'll only let me explain what
happened yesterday, then I'm sure you'll." "Olivia I already know what
happened yesterday." "You don't know everything. And you want to help
her? Really. Well thanks to you, none of us can." Captain stormed back
into his office and slammed the door. Eliot came over to her and said,
"Olivia it's a restraining order. That's the whole unit." Olivia wasn't
surprised. She just looked at the restraining order, gave it to Eliot,
and said, "Tell the Captain that I'm leaving." Then she walked away
and out the door.

Olivia got into her car and drove to Amish Lavin Farm School. She
knew that she was going to have a hard time getting into the school,
especially now, but she was ready. She was going to save Katy. She
pulled up in from of the school and got out of her car. She walked
over to the office and tried to open the door, but it wouldn't open.
she knocked on the door three times. No answer. She knocked on it
again. A woman opened the door. "Can I help you?" "Hi. My name is
Detective Olivia Benson." With that, the woman shut the door in her
face. "Mam! Open the door, or I'll break it down and arrest you for
obstruction!" The woman quickly opened the door. "What do you want? I
can't let you in. You have to go. You can't stay here." "What's your
name?" "I'm Alison, Jennifer's assistant. It's Thursday, and I'm only
going to be here for a little while." "Good. Long enough to answer my
questions." "No. Please leave Detective Benson, or I'll have to call
the police." "Let me in, I'll ask you my questions, then I'll leave,
and then you won't have to do that." "Okay, fine. Come in." "Thank you
Allison." You're welcome." Olivia walked into the office and Allison
closed the door. "So what do you want to know?" "I want to see Katy
Fitch-Tallaver's schedule for today." "No. I can't give you that."
"Yes you can, now I want to see it, please," Olivia said sounding very
frustrated and tired out by the whole situation. Allison sighed and
then said, "Fine." She went and got Katy's schedule. She gave it to
Olivia. Olivia looked at it and said, "She has a personal training
session today. just like I thought. Mike Denning, is her personal
trainer." "Is that all you needed Detective?" "No. It's not." "What
else do you need?" "I need Christina Wheetly's schedule as well."
Allison gave Olivia Christina as well. She looked at it and said,
"Okay. Christina doesn't have a trainer's session until tomorrow.
John Denning is her personal trainer. Are these trainers brothers?"
"Yes they are." "Where do the kids go to meet these trainers?"
"Sometimes the trainers pick them up from their classrooms, sometimes
they pick them up from their bedrooms. It's what ever they arrange
together." "I see. Does Mike or John have an office?" "No. They do
everything such as any paper work in here." "Do they tell you where
they are going for the day?" Allison hesitated for a minute. Olivia
said, "Look Allison, I don't need you being vague with me right now. I
need you to tell me anything and everything that you can." "I'm not
trying to be vague with you. It's just I've known these men for a really
long time, and I've even seen Katy a couple of times when Mike has
brought her in her for certain things, and she always seems so
happy." "Thing aren't always as they seem Allison." "I know, but.
I've even see Christina a few times, and she also seems very happy."
"Again, things aren't always as they seem." "All right. I'll tell you
what I can." "Good. Where are Katy and Mike meeting today?" "He says
that they are meeting in a special place. He says that this place is
vg to be very secluded, and just that he has something special
planned for her today." Olivia asked now very afraid, but sounding
more angry and very direct than upset, "What time is he planning to
meet her? Tell me the truth Allison!" "He's planning to meet her at
1-00 this afternoon." "Allison, I mean it, don't tell him about our
talk. Do you hear me?" "If I'm wrong about Mike, then I will figure
that out." "Okay Detective Benson. I promise. I won't tell him."
"Good. Thank you Allison. You've been very helpful." "You're welcome.
Goodbye Detective." "Bye Allison."

Olivia hurriedly got into her car and started driving. It was ten
minutes to one. She prayed that she would make it in time. She didn't
know where to go. She had no idea where Mike was taking Katy. She
prayed that God would help her just know where that place was where he
was taking her. Mike walked up the stairs to Katy's bedroom. She was
taking a nap after Lunch. He knocked on the door. "Come in." She knew
that it was going to be Mike. She was right. "Hi Katy. Are you ready
to go?" Katy sat up on her bed and said, "Yes. I'm ready." "Let's go
then." Katy stood up and said, "Okay." Mike gave Katy his arm and they
walked out of Katy's room. Katy asked when they were outside, "So
where are we going today?" "Somewhere special." They ended up at a
shed. Mike got the key out of his pocket. He opened the door. Katy's
face went pale. The shed was an exact replica of the shed that her
father used to lock her in. It smelled of old white paint. "Do you
smell that? Darling, I had this room painted just for you." Katy
started to say breathlessly and very quietly, "How did you know what
it looked like? How did you know?" She was very afraid. She wanted to
scream Olivia, but she knew that Olivia wasn't there and that she
couldn't hear her. She wished that Olivia was there. She thought
silently to herself, "If I ever make it out of this alive, I will tell
Olivia everything, everything that I didn't want her to know." Mike
said, "We're going to do something a little different today, and trust
me, you are going to remember everything." Katy just knew that that
couldn't be good. She didn't like the sound of that at all. She didn't
know what to do. She didn't know how to get out of this without
getting herself killed. Mike said, "Sit down. Here's something to
drink for you." "What is it?" "It's punch." Katy faced toward it and
looked sick. "What's wrong? Don't you like punch? It's strawberry,
your favorite." "It's not that. I'm allergic." "Allergic to what? The
punch?" Katy said very afraid, "Yes." "No you're not. I know that you're
not allergic to this punch, because I already checked your forms. Drink
it!" Katy had no choice but to drink it. She drank it. She felt
calmer, but she wasn't knocked out or anything. She was still aware of
everything that was going on, but she definitely felt calmer right
after she drank the punch. "Sit down on the bed to your left," Mike
said sounding very direct. Katy reluctantly felt to the left, and sat
down on the bed. Mike came up to her and started trying to take off
her shirt. Katy shook in fear. "Don't be afraid darling. I won't hurt
you. I think that you deserve to have a little fun after working so
hard." Katy wished that she could remember all of this so called hard
work. She was kind of glad that she couldn't, and yet, she was still
so confused. Then Mike started to kiss her all over. then he continued
to make Katy kiss him back. She reluctantly did what he said. Then Mike
started to try and take her pants off. Katy freaked out. She quickly
pulled back from him and screamed, "No! No! Leave me alone!" Katy
grabbed her shirt and quickly put it back on. "What do you think
you're doing? Take that back off!" "No! I won't!" "You won't! Just who
do you think you are?" Katy turned around and ran for the door. She
ran out the door and just started running. She remembered her way back
to the school. She was running, but before long, Mike caught up with
her. He grabbed her up and said, "And just where do you think you're
going little girl?" "Away from you! Go away and leave me alone!"
"Wrong answer!" Katy started to try to run again. He grabbed her and
said, "Oh so you want it ruff huh? Fine then. I've always wanted to
have an outdoor experience." He started to take her clothes off, but
then Katy fought back. She pushed him back and he fell to the floor.
He got up, but then Katy punched him back down to the ground. She
started to beat him, kick him, and punch him. Mike also started to
fight back. He started to fight back as well. He started punching and
kicking Katy. That went on for about another three minutes. They were
both getting the same amount of beating. Then Katy got a final hard
punch and kick from Mike, and then she gave him the final hard kick
and punch back before he was killed. Mike was dead. Katy was very
weak. She tried to run, but she just couldn't run very far without
falling to her knees. She ran a little. She just had to get away from
Mike. She was disgusted with him, with everything. She stopped running
and she just continued to walk forward. Mike just lay there about
twenty feet away from where Katy was walking. Katy was too weak, so
she fell down and right on a pile of leaves. She lay near a bush, so
afraid, so alone, and attacked. She lay there crying, crying for
everything that just happened to her, for Olivia.

When Olivia got out of her car, she just proceeded to walk. She
couldn't find Katy anywhere. Where was she? This place where she was
walking was definitely secluded enough. Not much farther, Olivia
spotted Mike. She looked in utter horror. She couldn't believe it. She
knew that it was Mike, because he had a name tag on him. She walked
over to him and said angrily, "What did you do to her you bastard?!"
Olivia wanted to kick him, but she knew that she couldn't tamper with
evidence. Her main priority was to find Katy. She saw the shed not too
far where she found Mike. She said, "Is this where you took her you
son of a bitch?" She left him there and then she walked over to the
shed. She opened the door to the shed and said hurriedly, "Katy? Katy?
Katy." Then she walked into the shed and saw the drug bottle and the
empty glass of Cystol Light on the table next to the drug bottle.
"Oh my God. Oh my God. I have to find Katy, and I don't think that she
is here. So where is she?" Olivia went out of the shed and started
walking to find Katy. She walked past Mike and said, "Don't worry you
bastard. I haven't forgotten about you, but I know that you're dead.
I'll call for them after I find Katy. I hope that they determine what
I already know. That Katy killed you." Olivia continued to walk. She
didn't have to go far. About twenty feet further, "Katy! Katy!" She
ran over to her and said again, "Katy. Honey. Are you okay?" Olivia
rushed over to Katy, but Katy didn't get up. She didn't make a sound.
She just laid there on the ground. "Katy Sweetheart. Can you hear
me? Can you hear me sweet heart? She said tearfully. Katy stared and
mumbled sounding groggy and very afraid, "Olivia. Olivia." "Yes
sweetie. It's me. I'm here. I'm right here. Mike isn't going to hurt
you anymore." "Mike? Mike? No! No! No!" "No sweetie. Mike isn't here.
He's dead." "Uh! Dead? I didn't mean to. I didn't mean to kill him! He
was hurting me Olivia! He was hurting me! I swear! I swear!" "Oh I
know sweet heart. I went into the shed and I saw the drugs that he
gave to you." Olivia could see the beating marks all over her arms,
her legs, and all over her whole body. "And I also see what he did to
you. Oh God sweetie what you've been through. I promise that you will
never have to go through this alone again. I will always bee here for
you from now on. But you have to tell me everything. And I'm not just
talking about what happened here tonight." "I know. I will tell you
everything. I promise." Olivia called for an ambulance and for DR.
Warner to come and examine Mike. Everyone who Olivia called for got
there two hours after the call was made. Traffic was held up for them
to make it a faster trip. While they were waiting, Olivia took Katy
into her car and just let her lay down in the back seat. Olivia stayed
with her the whole time. DR. Warner told her not to touch Mike. She
wanted to kill him for what he did to Katy. She was so angry. She
hated him, but she knew that wouldn't get her anywhere. So she kept
her distance, and she was glad to glad to finally get to spend some
time with Katy. When the ambulance got there, Olivia rode there with
Katy in the ambulance. DR. Warner went with Mike in a different
ambulance to the ME's office, but she already knew what happened. She
knew that he was a bastard, but she still had a job to do. This was
the worse part about it though. But the good thing about it, she
thought, was that she knew who he was and she already knew what or who
per say killed him. So this was going to be easy for her.

Katy and Olivia arrived at the hospital two hours later. Olivia
stayed with her the whole time while the paramedics helped Katy out of
the ambulance and into the hospital. "I'm right here Katy," Olivia
said, trying to reassure her. Katy faced toward her and smiled in
appreciation. Katy got put into a room, where she got checked out. She
was okay, but she had to stay in the hospital for a few days. She had
a lot of drugs in her system because of what Mike gave her. She also
had a lot of bodily injuries, due to Mike's attacks as well. Olivia sat
in the room with Katy. She was awake. She said sadly, "Olivia, I know
that I have made your life heck the last few months." "Me? I'm worried
about you." "I know. That's why you went through all of this." "Yes it
is. I know and I have always known that you needed me. I just had to
prove it. Maybe you can help me with that." "You were right Olivia. I
am being abused. Not just by this school, but by my parents too. Me
and my siblings have been being abused for as long as we have been
alive. They started with my oldest brother, and it goes all the way
down to my youngest sister. They abuse all of us all of the time. That
time when you heard me screaming, I wasn't screaming because me and my
father were playing. I was screaming because he was hitting and
throwing me around." "I thought as much." "And that night that you
found me in the shed, I wasn't there because I wanted to be there. I
was there because my father locked me in there. He was afraid that I
would tell you what really happened that night, and about everything
else that has been happening to us ever since we have been born. Also,
that night when I woke up every hour screaming and crying, I really
was having nightmares about my father beating me and my siblings. I
also would have nightmares about you and what he would do to you and
to me if he ever found out that I am telling you all of this." "Your
nightmares aren't going to come true. I promise you sweet heart,
because you told me this, your father isn't gong to hurt you ever
again." "Thank you so much Olivia. I knew that telling you was the
right thing to do. I should have told you sooner. I was just so
afraid." "It's okay sweetie. i understand. But you're telling me now,
and that's all that matters." "So what do we do now?" With that, there
was a knock at the door. "Detective Benson, there's someone who wants
to see you." "What is it?" "She says that she's Katy's mother and that
she wants to see you now." "Okay. Tell her that I'll be out there in a
minute." "I'll be right back sweetie. Are you gonna be okay?" "I'll be
fine. Thanks." "Sure. I'll be back in a minute," Olivia said
soothingly.

Olivia walked out of the hospital room and saw Katy's mother
standing there waiting for her. "You wanted to see me?" "Yes I did.
What the hell are you thinking?" "Excuse me? Katy wants me in there."
"She does not know what she wants. She was just hurt. She needs me in
there with her. "Katy doesn't want you in there. She told me
everything." "Everything about what? What that man at the school did
to her?" "No Sarah," Olivia said angrily. "Katy told me everything
about what you and your husband did to her, and the rest of her
siblings!" "What? We have done nothing to Katy or to any of her
siblings. I don't know what you are talking about! Olivia." "I'm
talking about all of the years that Katy and her siblings suffered at
the hands of you and especially your husband," Olivia said very angry
now. "Suffered? Katy and her siblings love their home, and they also
love their family. They would never tell you such things that are not
true." "Well they are all true Sarah. Katy wouldn't lie to me."
"Because you guys are so close, Olivia? Katy and you are not close.
She was only telling you what you want to hear just so you will leave
her alone." Olivia kind of smiled and said, "That is not true." "Yes
it is true. And I am going in there now to see my daughter." "You're
not going anywhere near her!" "She wants to see me Olivia." "No Sarah!
I promised her that I wouldn't let you anywhere near her ever again,
and I intend on keeping that promise." "She's my daughter, and I'm
going to see her!" "No you're not!" "Yes I am!" "No Sarah! You're
not." "Yes I am, Olivia!" Sarah started to try and walk toward Katy's
room, which was only a few short steps away. Olivia walked in front of
her and grabbed her. "You're not going anywhere near Katy Sarah!" "No
Olivia!" "Sarah Fitch-Tallaver, you're under arrest for child
endangerment and for child abuse!" "Child abuse," as Sarah was pulled
into a position where Olivia could cuff her. "You knew the whole time
what you're husband was doing to Katy and to her siblings, and you did
nothing. Katy also told me what you would do to her for the sake of
obeying your husband. In case you didn't know, the law applies in the
Amish and the English world. That's child abuse. You have the right
to remain silent. If you give up that right, anything you say can and
will be held against you in a court of law. You have the right to an
attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If
you can not afford one, one will be appointed to you. Do you
understand these rights as I've explained them to you?" "Yes I
understand my rights, but you're making a big mistake." "Just so you
know, what you just said is going to go on the record, and for the
record, the first mistake that you made was marrying your husband and
letting him do what he did to your children." "So what are we going to
do now?" "We are not going to do anything. Another officer will be
down in a minute to take you in." Aren't you going to do that?" "No.
I'm going to stay with Katy." With that, Erin walked up. "Mr.
Fitch-Tallaver. I didn't know that you'd be here as well." "I came
because I knew that Katy was hurt. Why is Sarah restrained?" "Because
Sarah is under arrest, as you will be in a minute." "Under arrest? For
what?" Sarah said soothingly to her husband, "For the same thing that
I am." With that, Olivia grabbed Erin and put him in a position where
she could cuff him as well. "Mr. Fitch-Tallaver, you are under arrest
for child endangerment and child abuse!" "Child abuse!?" "Yes Mr.
Fitch-Tallaver. Child abuse." "I swear, I never touched Katy." Olivia
quickly interrupted him and as she was cuffing him she said, "Ya swear
on what? God? The bible? Your daughter? You have the right to remain
silent. Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court
of law. You have the right to an attorney, and to have an attorney
present during any questioning. If you can not afford one, one will be
appointed to you. Do you understand these rights as I have explained
them to you?" "Yes Detective, but you're making a very big mistake
doing this!" "Is that a threat Mr. Fitch-Tallaver?" "You bet it is,
bitch!" "Let's go," Olivia said directly to both of them. Eliot showed
up. "Live ya want me to take them in so you can stay with Katy?"
"Yeah. Thanks." "What? No! I don't want her to stay with Katy," Erin
said. "Well, thank God, that that's not up to you anymore," Olivia
said. Eliot took both Sarah and Erin into the stationhouse.
