She will share her story of how she, from a normal family, fell into the hands of a grooming gang that abused children, resulting in a total prison sentence of 257 years. Christina's parents desperately tried to protect their 13-year-old daughter from the grooming gang, who lured her into sexual activities in exchange for pizza, vodka, and cannabis. After five years of almost daily rape, Christina was forced to commit robberies under duress and was eventually jailed. Despite making a complaint to the police, no action was taken. She views her prison term as a salvation, as it marked the beginning of her transformation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo years after her release, her police statement was discovered in a filing cabinet, leading to the launch of Operation Tendersea, the investigation into the grooming gang. Christina has waived her right to anonymity and is speaking out for the first time, hoping to raise awareness about the issue and empower others who have been affected by similar crimes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 202g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 129 x 197 x 19 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781915306401\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Christina O'Connor,Ann Cusack","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44299867783418,"sku":"9781915306401","price":7.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1687536869836_book.jpg?v=1687806649","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/groomed-by-a-gang-9781915306401","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
