Laura Johnson, the victim witness coordinator for Sebastian County, shows some of the toys she uses to put child victims at ease. But the victims carry what happened with them for years and years. The aftermath of these crimes doesn't hit right away. Diana shares her family's story hoping it will alert parents or encourage children to talk about their secret shame. They were children.
