Nearly two years after being raped and dumped in the snow, Daisy Coleman, now 15 years old, has decided to step out of the shadows and give her account of that dark evening and how life has been different ever since. Thanks to the activist hacking collective called Anonymous, who trended #justice4daisy, Daisy has found the courage to give an account of what happened.

The 8th of January in 2012 was the day that changed Daisy's life, as well as her friend Paige Parkhurst. According to Daisy, the two girls were having a low-key evening hanging out in Daisy's bedroom, watching scary movies and buzzing on alcohol. Daisy was also texting a senior football player Matthew Barnett, who her brother had warned her against. He later invited her to a party at his home.

The girls snuck out of Daisy's home, Matt retrieved them in a black car, and took them to his basement where they proceeded to drink. Daisy swallowed down liquor from a cup that was marked 'the bitch cup', which was five shots tall. According to Daisy, she didn't know what effect the alcohol would have on her, but said that the boys who supplied it certainly did.

She blacked out; and when things dimmed, Daisy says Matt violated her and dumped her in the snow in below freezing temperatures to possibly die. She awoke in the snow, crawled to her front door, and scratched at it until her mother opened it.

Daisy was taken to the ER, a rape test was administered, and she stated that doctors confirmed that she had been raped. She would later learn that Paige had been raped as well.

Daisy's pain did not stop that evening, and she would fall victim to what is often called "The Second Rape," a cultural event where women who say they were sexually assualted are blamed and shamed for their violation. They are called whores and sluts, and are told that they were deserving of this sexual violence. She was forced to endure hateful rumors, and suffer the humiliation of having an alleged recording of the rape circulate around her school. Her family was constantly threatened. Daisy's family home was suspiciously burned down, and Daisy's mother lost her job. She and her family eventually moved back to Albany, where they'd left only a short time before.

"On Twitter and Facebook, I was called a skank and a liar and people encouraged me to kill myself. Twice, I did try to take my own life," Daisy said. "When I went to a dance competition I saw a girl there who was wearing a T-shirt she made. It read: "Matt 1, Daisy 0."

According to Daisy's mother, Sheriff Darren White of the Kansas City Police Department stated that following the assault, authorities had gathered evidence and had acquired audio/video confessions, but a week later, charges were dismissed. "We did our job," he later said. "We did it well. It's unfortunate that they are unhappy. I guess they're just going to have to get over it."

This purported heinous act rattled Daisy's faith in God; it caused her to slice her skin with blades; and has prompted self-hatred. She no longer cheerleads, or dances, or participates in pageants.

But, she says she hasn't given up on her life, and with the support of groups like Anonymous, she has found that other individuals have not given up on her, either.

"We demand an immediate investigation into the handling by local authorities of Daisy's case," Anonymous said. "We have heard Daisy's story far too often. We heard it from Steubenville, Halifax and Uttar Pradesh. ... If Maryville won't defend these young girls, if the police are too cowardly or corrupt to do their jobs, if the justice system has abandoned them, then we will have to stand for them."

Anonymous and many others have demanded that the case be reopened, as it was nearly closed. The Noraway County prosecutor dropped the felony cases against the accused perpetrators, one of which is the grandson of a political figure in that area. And, the fact that the case was nearly closed despite supposed evidence that she was sexually assaulted raises questions.

CNN stated, it'd be difficult to know if Anonymous' demands will impact the Maryville case, but the Missouri Lt. Gov. has called for a grand jury review of the evidence.
