After two failed marriages, Jody wanted to make a new life for herself and her two daughters. "I moved a thousand miles away for a fresh start," she says. "I just bought a home. I was raising two beautiful children, and I was happy. I met a man named Georgie and I just totally fell in love with him. I felt that God had sent him to me, that he was my soul mate."
Then Jody's 3-year-old daughter told her about a special game she played with Georgie. "She had these stuffed animals. She said that Georgie was daddy bear and that she was the mommy bear and that they had two baby bears. She said that 'We lay on them.' I said, 'Well, what did you do besides lay on the bear?' And she said, 'Daddy would touch me.'
"There was no way possible that I would think or could imagine that he would be capable of that. I took it to him the next day and confronted him about it. He convinced me that she was mistaken. And I believed him."
