Ashley Corwin knew Violet would have many questions ahead of her following a sexual assault and a 2016 sentence of life in prison plus 20 years for the defendant. Would she get her childhood back? Would she ever trust anyone again? \Corwin, a Hall County Sheriff’s Office investigator, adopted Violet in March. “All of these questions are really hard to answer, but the one thing I do know is that the village of people that have surrounded her since then love her with all their heart,” Corwin said.
