Listening and telling a story like hers is one of the great honors of journalism - one I do not take lightly. I hope I did her justice with this piece. “You cannot imagine what they did," she told me. "It was awful.”

@FarFarrAway @ClaimsCon My god, her husband's story. Even just that little snippet is horrifying.
