Sheryl Underwood on Surviving Abuse: ‘The Person That Was Molesting Me, I Wanted to Kill Him’ (WATCH)

*Time for some real talk from Sheryl Underwood.

Tuesday, on CBS’ “The Talk,” while discussing a story about a woman being sentenced to ten years in prison for killing her abusive mother, Underwood reflects on her own difficult childhood being molested.

“The feelings of the abuse that was happening to me every day, I did have thoughts about killing people, because I wanted to end it. I wanted to be free,” shares an emotional Underwood.

“I used to pray all the time to take this anger from me. The person that was molesting me every day, I wanted to kill him. But I always knew the Bible said ‘Vengeance is mine, says the Lord.’”

“I thank God that I had people intercede in my life so I didn’t destroy my life and end up incarcerated. But when that pain is happening to you every day and you know this is your life every day, there is violence in you.”

Underwood adds advice to others who may be in similar circumstances.

“To anyone that’s experiencing this, don’t make two violations. You killed a person, now you’re incarcerated… I thank God for the fact that I didn’t make [those] decision.”
