Sex attack victim Carol Maggs spelt out the appalling cost of her ordeal at the hands of brutal guardsman, Tom Holdsworth. She was hospitalized for 8 months with broken ribs, severe internal injuries and a mass of cuts and bruises. But it’s the mental scars which will take a long time to heal. "I can’t face an audience or strangers," she said. She has now found a job in a fish ship where there is a counter between her and the public. Her rising face as a soul singer 5 nights a week with a band is over. " I wanted to marry and raise a family, but I can’t feel any trust for men," she said.
