Azriel’s mother revealed to PEOPLE on Thursday that she couldn’t be happier to reunite with her daughter.
“The battle is won because she’s still here, she’s still alive, she’s still breathing and though she lost a few years of her life, she’s still here to tell her story,” Alice said. “Because I chose not to keep her secluded in her life, she’s here now and we’re able to say the victory is won because she finally came to her senses.”
Alice also slammedKellyfor allegedly sexually abusing her daughter. Kelly denies the allegations that he abused or mistreated Azriel in any way.
“He kept her stagnated for years and didn’t let her be with her family,” she said. “She didn’t do the same things that other young girls do so she didn’t learn any lessons. All she learned was s— that was with him. This whole ordeal is twisted and unfortunately people and the media and everybody, they don’t look at it that way.”
“Everybody wants to bash and throw her under the bus and this and that, and they just really don’t understand that this still is a young lady that has a life to live and this s— is crazy,” Alice said.
Alice is thankful that Azriel is able to move forward.
“My daughter could either not be here because of the choices she made when she was 17 or I get to be able to fight and help her grow,” she told PEOPLE. “To be honest, the battle is won because she’s still here, she’s still alive.”
“I just feel like people don’t give victims a fair share,” Alice said. “I know with my daughter, it would be the same way so that’s why I’ve never spoken out after the documentary.”
