It was a charity bike gride on Long Island, New
York for young breast cancer survivors. Everyone's patting each on
their backs, saying you got this. This is incredible. People
are singing and cheering. Liz Hickock's was volunteering at a
rest stop. Someone asked if she would take a picture
of one of the riders. She was told that the
woman was towards the back of the pack. She said,
(00:23):
she has a pink sock and she has a green
sock on. When I saw her, she had flown past
me and gone into the rest stop, and I said,
oh my gosh, you must be Sarah, Sarah Delashman. She
texted Sarah the photo and that might have been the
end of it, But later Liz started noticing Sarah on
the Young Survivor's Facebook group. She would post pictures of
(00:46):
herself sitting in what looked like a hospital bid getting
the juice today, looking for prayers and support, getting radiation,
Pictures of herself in what kind of a halo? A
medical halo that you would use you were having brain surgery.
One day, Sarah wrote to Liz saying that she was
going to be near her town. I'm going to take
(01:07):
a chance here and I'm going to drive up and
I'm going to see you For a weekend, Liz and
her husband hung out with Sarah. Sarah sat in the
hammock and she said, this is now my happy place.
We wanted her to have almost like adult fun camp
weekend because honestly, we didn't know if we were going
to see her again. That wasn't something they needed to
worry about. We got a text from her saying, guess what, guys,
(01:31):
my flight was canceled. She came back again the next weekend,
and it turned around and I saw Sarah and it
was like I saw a ghost. And the next she
crashed our family reunion in every way until the day
everything fell apart. You see, Sarah was never who she
(01:52):
pretended to be. I looked right into her eyes and
didn't see Sarah. It was this different person and her
eyes were absolutely black. Turns out there were a lot
of Sarah's. She found these communities where she knew she
wasn't going to be questioned, and she would try to
find easy targets. I couldn't quite understand how she got
(02:14):
away with will this for so long. It was just unbelievable.
She was very obsessed with babies and very obsessed with pregnancies. Finally,
she told one lie too many. She found people who
show a tremendous amount of empathy, and she exploited that
her victims know exactly what Sarah did to them, but
(02:35):
they were faced with a problem. How do you find
justice when no law has been broken but you are.
It was just unbelievable that somebody could be so cold
and just heart like, just heartless. I'm Laura Beale. Listened
