McCue, Duncan; Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
Description
"What are the limits of your capacity to forgive? It's something a remarkable B.C. woman spent years considering before she made one of the most difficult decisions imaginable. Debbie Warsing not only makes peace with her stepson years after he tortured her and murdered her two small children, she even supports his bid for freedom. As Duncan McCue reports, this transformation is a testament to the profound healing possible through the restorative justice process." --Container.
