Amber Richards, described years of manipulation and sexual abuse that began when she was 14.

Testifying during the trial, she recounted waking up to find Richards beside her bed and enduring repeated assaults while pretending to be asleep.

The abuse, she said, escalated after he sent her a message about taking their relationship “to the next level.”
