Please tune in tonight to ABC News 20/20 at 10PM for a program I produced, wrote and shot a lot of the video for: 

Blood Lines: The Story of Melissa Moore, the daughter of The "Happy Face" serial killer. 

Melissa tells about growing up with a loving Dad who at the same time is on a five-year five-state killing spree. You'll hear about how she deals with life once he is captured, the fears she has for her own children,  and how she learns to rise above the sins of her father.

Bridget Kelly: A Survivor's Story

The story of a victim of a senseless violation who was strong enough to survive and composed enough to share her experience and to let it be known that there should be no stigma associated with the wounded.



Charlie Gibson's introduction: "And now, we're going to turn to the story of a young woman, who made a big impression on all of us here at "Primetime." She has an extraordinary story of survival, and we keep asking how did she do it? How did she survive one terrible night at the hands of a crazed attacker. And what happened inside of her? How did she end up concluding that what happened wasn't something to be ashamed of? And how did she decide that women deserve a voice? And how did she find her voice?"

Award winning columns written by Bridget's dad, Mike Kelly, Omaha World-Herald

Kelly wanted to take part in the campaign to help fight the sense of social stigma that casts silence over the topic of rape. "There is no way anyone is going to make me feel ashamed of having been raped," Kelly said. "I'm so grateful for the opportunity to participate in TAASA's public awareness campaign."
