Since the episode, ‘Edgar’ was published, many more victims have come forward, and the case against the alleged living abuser continues. After that episode Nicky received many emails, one of which was from the daughter of the man who abused him, Hamish Dawson.

She talks about healing, volunteering to speak to her father’s victims and thriving despite the legacy her father left behind.
