About this listen
Four children by her father.
Thirty years of horrific sexual abuse.
In March 2009, Joseph Fritzl was sentenced to life in jail for the systematic imprisonment, torture and rape of his daughter, Elisabeth, over 24 years, fathering seven children. The case shocked the world.
But just a month before, the story of Australia’s own house of horrors was emerging in a Victorian country town.
Under a blanket of suppression orders, a man in his late 60s was quietly arrested, charged - and later convicted - for the systematic rape, abuse and imprisonment of his only daughter, 'Katherine', which spanned decades. He fathered four of her children.
Until now, this shocking story has been buried under a complex legal web and Katherine’s insistence on silence so that she could rebuild her shattered life and protect her children. In Behind Closed Doors, written with Sue Smethurst, Katherine breaks her silence and tells the story of how she survived - and how such degrading abuse went unnoticed for so long.

Spooky.
Also just your father's general behaviours, demeaner and psychological history is crazy similar to my own father's. I suppose it does paint a picture of depravity and dysfunction well before they became the men who chose to abuse their own children in this way.
I am writing my own autobiography about my journey at the moment and this written piece as well as being an inspiration for me has emboldened me to feel brave enough to do it.
Well done girl, good on you.
