Sherry Johnson was an 8-year-old girl in 1968, living in Tampa, FL with her family, whom were part of a very strict sect of the Apostolic Church. The church was the centre of their world. So, when the Bishop of the church gave Sherry a gift of a red bicycle, her mother was very proud...but Sherry knew the gift was meant to buy her silence. And it was this silence that would hold her captive in a legal loophole for years to come and eventually motivate Sherry into a battle that she is still fighting to this day.
