“I feel it is a closing chapter on the most horrific experience I have ever had and now I only have my flawed memory to work out how it got to this point.

“The only thread in these considerations is Peter Chilvers was an abuser and I was unfortunate enough to commence a relationship with him.”

Peter Chilvers trial hea rd that he subjected Magdalena Lesicka to violent and degrading abuse, including banging her head against a car window, squeezing her nose so she couldn’t breathe when they were kissing, plucking hairs out of his head and making her eat them, pinching her, verbally abusing her, and making threats.

“It’s hard to see myself as a victim given the tragic outcome “, Lesicka said.

” I know my life has been changed forever and there is nothing I can do change it back.

“I have the rest of my life to contemplate these events and it is a daunting prospect.

“I have no idea how he achieved this and I will probably spend the rest of my life trying to work out how he turned the confident, ambitious me into what I am now.

” He broke me and I find it almost impossible to contemplate that I let this happen.

“Living with Peter became an exercise of walking on eggshells.

” The best way to describe the latter stages of the relationship is it became a power struggle.

“I tried to leave but he would not let me.

” I had no power.

“I tried to break away for the safety of James and myself.

” I failed because Peter would not release me.

“I failed because Peter had too much control over me.

” I lost all my self respect.

“My only goal was to get through another day.

” Peter’s behavior stripped me of my dignity.

“I have very little left in my life, not even my freedom.

“This is my burden to carry.

“I accept it in the hope that some day I can move forward.

“I was broken by him and I can never be the person I was before I met him.

” I am alone now, I feel ugly, worthless, defenceless, ashamed, guilty and weak.

“Peter was responsible for doing what he did to me.

” I am genuinely terrified he will do this to someone else.

“I leave Peter’s punishment to the court.

” It’s too late for me and everyone affected by his abuse and control.

I hope he receives a just punishment but more importantly I hope he understands what his behavior has caused.

“He has taken everything from me, including my spirit.”
