As a former Jehovah's Witness, Lucille faced an incredibly challenging situation but demonstrated unwavering determination to protect the innocent and advocate for justice.  With immense courage, Lucille first contacted Child Protective Services, knowing the gravity of her responsibility in safeguarding the vulnerable child involved.
