An Oklahoma woman says that her step-uncle, who served 12 years for molesting her when she was 7-years-old, has moved next door.

Danyelle Dyer, 21, was “extremely shocked” to learn that Harold Dwayne English was her new neighbor in Bristow, Oklahoma, she told People in an interview.

“As a 7-year-old, I had never been exposed to anything like that so I didn’t know it was bad until he told me not to tell,” Dyer said.

English was arrested once Dyer’s parents learned about the abuse. In 2004, he was convicted of lewd molestation and sentenced to 12 years in prison.

But upon his June 13 release, he moved in with his mother — and Dyer’s grandmother — Betty Dyer, just 100 yards from his victim’s house. The grandmother told CNN she was just giving him a “place to stay” temporarily.

Oklahoma has laws that prevent predators from living near schools and churches, but none about their proximity to victims. Only five states place restrictions on how far an offender can live from a victim, according to People.

Since there’s nothing Dyer can do about her new neighbor legally, she took to Facebook to bring attention to the “obvious flaws” in the legal system.

“Meet my abuser and my new neighbor,” she wrote on post sharing his photo from Oklahoma sex offender registry. “He has been asked to leave but in Oklahoma he can legally reside there. Surely Oklahoma can do better than this.”

Dyer and her family are working with Oklahoma State Rep. Kyle Hilbert to introduce legislation that would protect victims.

“I was pretty outraged, but I have channeled that rage into a more positive outlet, which, for me, is sharing my story and empowering other victims of sexual assault,” Dyer said.

She said that plans to do everything she can to prevent the situation from happening to other sexual assault victims. Her father also posted signs in the neighborhood identifying English as a registered sex offender.

“I don’t want anyone else to ever have to go through the feelings of reliving the trauma from something like this,” Dyer said.
