Her father Thomas C Williams, a Los Angeles police detective was picking up her 6-year-old brother when he was assassinated right there at his school. His quick thinking was able to save her brother’s life but would unfortunately end his own.

After living 14 years of flight, fight, or freeze she finally had answers and a diagnosis of PTSD. She claims that EMDR and writing her book saved her life. She is the author of “The Other Side of the Gun, My Journey from Trauma to Resilience.”

I Walked Through Fire to Get Here! https://thecrimeconnection.org/i-walked-through-fire-to-get-here/ https://thecrimeconnection.org/i-walked-through-fire-to-get-here/#respond Sun, 22 Oct 2023 20:14:51 +0000 http://thecrimeconnection.org/?p=1417 At the young age of seven, Megan Connor was being sex trafficked by her babysitter and her husband. Even at that age, she knew she could not tell her family due to growing up in a Mormon household and being told to stay silent. This would only lead her down multiple abusive relationships and the feeling of having no value.

Megan is also the cousin of murderer Lori Vallow Daybell “Doomsday Mom”. Being a mother of six she was able to see how important it is to break the cycle of generational abuse and to write her own survival guide to help others going through the same situation.
