When she was just five years old, Teri Hatcher’s uncle began raping her and the abuse lasted for several years. However, the “Desperate Housewives” star only gathered the courage to come forward as an adult after she learned that her uncle also raped a 14-year-old who later committed suicide. Her statement about her experiences helped put her uncle away behind bars for 14 years.
