The total to be exact since 17 years $700,000! My family still has receipts of most payments, my uncle is in prison for rape and that was a lie, he did sleep with the girl but months later his ex set him up, now he's charged for life. It's sad how people can kill these days and walk free. If only my family didn't chose his crook ass. Now he's running for Fraud! Serves him right, wish I could get back all the money the bitch scammed back!
