It took nearly four years for a sexual assault case to wrap in Boone County. Now, the two women involved in the case are sharing their stories.
COLUMBIA - Nearly four years after Mary Denson says a friend sexually assaulted her, she s finally getting a chance to tell her story. I think it s important for women to be heard, and for all victims of sexual violence to be heard, Denson said. And it s not going to change until we continue to face it.
She said the assault happened after a local concert in Boone County in September 2017. Derek came in and got on top of me and pinned me down and assaulted me, Denson said. And later Derek followed me out to the porch and got on top of me and assaulted me again.
