Begin reading the series here. Or, go back to Exposing the Hypocrite.
Eventually, I was able to get away completely from my parents, but not from my past. I was a full-fledged cutter by the time I reached adulthood and suicidal thoughts and idealizations were never far from my mind.
Finally after three hospitalizations for suicide prevention, law enforcement was contacted in November 2006 and a minor investigation ensued to make sure my younger siblings weren’t being molested. I made the mistake of calling my dad to warn him he was under investigation. Here is the conversation we had.
Me: “Hey dad, I’m out of the hospital again. Ummm….I don’t know how to say this, but do you remember what you used to do to me?”
Dad: “Yes.”
Me: “Well, I told them about it and they filed a report.”
Dad: “Why would you do something like that! Do you want the kids to grow up without a father? I should’ve seen this coming. I should’ve known you would do this to me too. I should’ve known you would seek to destroy me.”
Me: “Why did you molest me? Why did you touch me when you punished me for doing less than that with the kids?”
Dad: “I molested you because you molested my children. But in my defense, I never inserted my finger into your vagina. I NEVER took your virginity. And besides, I prayed and confessed to God. It’s your sin for not forgiving me now.”
Me: “Well, I just wanted you to know. Goodbye.”
Indiana CPS and police moved against my dad and interviewed my younger siblings. Although I am within my statute of limitations to press charges, Indiana has declined to even conduct an investigation into my claims based on destruction of evidence and passage of time.
Dr. Kenneth Copley is now serving on the Pastoral Staff at Brownsburg Baptist Church as their counselor. I have decided it is up to me and me alone to tell the truth about Dr. Kenneth Copley and his wife Elizabeth. They beat and abused their children. Dr. Kenneth Copley molested his adopted daughter and claims God’s forgiveness as reason to not confess and make this right. He is the biggest Christian hypocrite I know. He has tricked thousands of people all over this country into believing he is a “good, godly man” with a desire to help others. I won’t deny he hasn’t helped people, but the man I know behind the mask is an unrepentant pedophile who continues to hide his wrongs behind “godly ministries.” This is the first time I have come out publicly and denounced him, his “godly” testimony, and reputation.
