A Florida woman is suing a local sheriff's department years after she alleges law enforcement officials made her write an apology letter to a man who raped her as a child.

Taylor Cadle, 22, alleged in a lawsuit that Polk County Sheriff's Office personnel, including Sheriff Grady Judd and investigator Melissa Turnage, accused her of lying to investigators, forcing her to write apology notes to her adoptive father who had been raping her for years.
