(CNN) -- Jennifer Schuett's search for the man who snatched her from her bed when she was 8, sexually assaulted her and left her for dead on top of an ant hill ended Tuesday with the arrest of a suspect.
Jennifer Schuett, 27, was abducted and left for dead at age 8. A suspect was arrested Tuesday.
Now begins another chapter in Schuett's 19-year quest for justice.
Standing in front of the television cameras, Jennifer Schuett blinked back tears.
"This is a huge day for me," she later told CNN over the phone. "And I want to see this through the end. The rest will come out during the trial."
Schuett was in her bed when a man crept in through a window on August 10, 1990. She remembers waking up in a stranger's arms as he carried her across a dark parking lot. She said he told her he was an undercover cop and knew her family.
He drove her through the streets of Dickinson, pulling into an overgrown field where, she said, he sexually assaulted her.
Don't Miss
She passed out. When she regained consciousness, she was lying on top of an ant hill with her throat slashed and her voice box torn. She spent about 14 hours in the field before she was found and rushed to the hospital in critical condition.

Jennifer is a true survivor and I pray she can now live in peace, without fear that this animal will do this again or come back and hurt her. I'm sure he would, it was just a matter of time, he would act out.
The sketch drawing of her assailant was uncanny. She couldn't have given a better description. It gave me chills when I saw his driver's license. Wow!
I'm just so happy for her.
























i'm so proud of her!
i just can't get over how many predators climb steal these children right out of their own homes, that's just way too scary to even think about
