Synopsis

The horrors of Rozetta Mowery's childhood, 12 years in abusive foster homes and two abusive marriages never darkened her spirits. Her life and her destiny is to share her story with the world as a warning to the dangers of domestic violence and how it destroys lives and families. Please read her book, "Tragedy in Tin Can Holler" and share it with everyone you love and hold dear to your heart.

Rozetta's story is true horror that spans six generations; murder, domestic violence, child abuse, (including foster care abuse) incest, illegal adoptions, lies and family secrets that were buried for decades! Discovering the truth about her family changed her life drastically and has taken her on a journey she never envisioned. Today Rozetta is an advocate speaker against domestic violence and child abuse. She is also a motivational speaker for all ages, a spokesperson for CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) and the Holston United Methodist Home for Children.
