White Plains — Even the court reporter had to stretch his neck to decipher the words racing from the 14-year-old girl as she faced down her two sexual abusers yesterday. Within an hour, they would together be sentenced to a total of 180 years in federal prison.
Kenneth Leight and his girlfriend, Miriam Jass, both of Warwick, were convicted of sexually abusing two 12-year-old girls — one of them a relative of Leight's — in 2004. Leight also was convicted of possessing child pornography.
"You ruined my life" and "I trusted you" were the few phrases that were discernible through the girl's tear-soaked wails.
By the end of her statement, all her words ran together, mere syllables of a continuous sob. Except these, uttered at the close: "I'm a survivor. You deserve death."
