Tina Blee, who was in Jersey yesterday, hopes that her visit will give other victims the strength to break decades of silence and speak out.
Now aged 38, she was just six when Colin Tillbrook, the former superintendent at Haut de la Garenne, and his wife gave her a home.
After leaving Jersey, Mr Tillbrook, who died 20 years ago, took up a position with Dorset Social Services as an officer vetting children’s homes. It was he while worked in Dorset that Ms Blee was fostered and when she says that he abused her and had sex with her.
