Former Moscow resident speaks on her abuse, shaming that followed

By Samantha Malott, Daily News staff writer

Natalie Greenfield, at the age of 13, met the man who would become her abuser while she was at a Christ Church function in Moscow.

For the seven months following that first meeting, the 23-year-old pastor-in-training was grooming her, building trust and friendship, she said.

“Then he moved in with us along with several other boarders,” she said. “Within weeks of moving in he started sexually abusing me.”

Greenfield spoke Thursday night at the University of Idaho as the keynote speaker for sexual assault awareness month. She also sat down prior to her presentation for a one-on-one talk with the Daily News.
