Synopsis

'I feel my story had to be told. So much evil was done there was a voice inside me shouting, "Justice".'

With no one to confide in, Kathy suffered in silence as she was battered by her father and molested by local boys.

At the age of eight, she was torn from her family and incarcerated in a series of Catholic homes. When she was sent to a psychiatric unit, she suffered terrifying electric- shock therapy and further cruelty at the hands of her supposed carers.

After ending up in a Magdalen laundry, she fell victim to sexual abuse and gave birth to baby Annie just weeks before her fourteenth birthday. Don't Ever Tell is Kathy's harrowing account of her ruined childhood and of her subsequent fight for justice.
