Greg Sims is a bully who assaults Josie. Years ago, Greg’s family lived next door to Josie and Mama, and he regularly tormented Josie for being illegitimate. As teenagers, Greg and his gang assault and threaten to rape Josie and Anna after the girls finish their late shift at McDonald’s one night. Jacob Coote beats Greg up, and that seems to scare Greg into not targeting the girls again.
