Taylor Cadle, a resident of Polk County, Florida, was raped on the side of a country road by her adoptive father. She managed to film the incident on her phone, after which the teenager contacted the police. The Ledger reports this.
According to the publication, the incident occurred back in 2017. The year before, Taylor had already tried to report sexualized violence against her by Henry Cadle to the police. However, then the local sheriff not only refused to arrest the girl’s adoptive father, but also accused her of filing a false report.
The teenager's adoptive mother, Henry Cadle's wife, suggested Taylor plead guilty to libel. As part of her probation, she was required to write letters of apology to her adoptive father and Polk County Sheriff's Deputy Melissa Turnage, who questioned her after the initial complaint.

After this, Taylor decided that she needed to collect evidence of the rape herself. When her adoptive father decided to rape her again, the then 13-year-old girl was able to take photos and videos on her phone and call the police upon arriving home.
As a result, Henry Cadle pleaded guilty and the court sentenced him to 17 years in prison, a lifetime of probation, and placement on the Sexualized Violence Offender Register.

The Ledger notes that Taylor lived with her biological mother until she was seven. “We never had a permanent home when I was growing up. We were always either homeless or sleeping on other people's couches. We slept in the car. I never had a place to call home until I was adopted,” the girl said.
After authorities took her from her mother, she spent two years in orphanages and foster homes before being adopted by Henry Cadle and his wife. The man started molesting Taylor when she was nine years old. Then she did not say anything, afraid that she would be sent to another family again. Over the following years, his adoptive father's sexualized abuse continued until he was arrested.
