The Girl Without a Soul
Monique handles one of the toughest cases of her career: the
sexual abuse of a five-year-old-girl at the hands of her father and his friend.
The girl’s mother, a drug addict, provided no protection. As the mother talks
casually about the incident Monique reflects back to her own abuse. Monique
fought in courts against the parents, went head-to-head against a disinterested
court system and social service agencies and eventually prevailed. Over the
years she kept in touch with the foster family that eventually took the child
in and helped them legally adopt her.
