Would you write a letter to your rapist if you had the chance?

The recent news about Brock Turner and the moving letter written by his victim has me thinking about contacting one of my rapists.

I was raped by two male friends when I was barely 15. That was 30 years ago and it is still fresh in my mind. The trauma was made worse by my best friends not believing me. We were all a group of friends. One of the rapists is the cousin of one of my good friends from the group. The boys never paid for their 20 minutes of action.

I found one of the men on Facebook. I noticed he has a 19 year old daughter. Should I write to him and tell him how I’ve suffered all these years?

What would you do?
