The Reckoning

Alison Connolly, 49, was stabbed to death by two sisters Charice and Amberstasia Gassmann, in May 2015 and the pair were later jailed. Alison had been sexually abused throughout her childhood by her father and had never been able to speak out. He later abused and raped Alison's daughter, Tara, also. After her mother was murdered, Tara became intent on justice, and, on the eve of her mother's wake, she secretly recorded her grandfather's confession. He was later jailed for 19 years for child abuse and died in prison. In 'The Reckoning', Tara Proffitt reveals how she was able to deal with her dark past.
