Hello,

My name is Joshua Bend, I am a 26 year old male residing in Bucks County, Pennsylvania in the township of Falls. I am looking for a second chance when someone who was in a

position of trust violated me sexually, which resulting in my anger outbursts in school and at home. Now that I've become sober and have gotten treatment for my Post-Traumatic

Stress Disorder, I am looking to start my life and be who I wanted to be, and that is become a Bucks County Sheriff to help people who want it.

I was a child who was full of life and I got satisfaction on making people smile, laugh and just feel good about themselves and make them know that everyone has potential if

they just get on the right track to life!!!

Please direct this to anyone who is interested in giving someone a second chance at life. All of my rebellious behavior was when no one believed me in my home, including my

parents, and I would just REBEL MORE AND MORE AND MORE.

I just really need help in becoming what I wanted to be before that trauma occurred. But I did not trust people who truly wanted to help me, because my instinct that they wanted

to actually harm me. So, I would lose trust in those people when I started to rebel.

Please help me!!

The sexual assault was remitted from the story to protect the dignity of the person... I am not about seeking revenge but by helping people who too also experienced a form of

trauma which led to their drug/alcohol and mental health illness...
