Beautiful, pious farm girl, one of six children of Luigi Goretti and Assunta Carlini.In 1902 at age eleven, Maria was attacked by 19-year-old farm-hand Alessandro Serenelli. He tried to rape the girl who fought, yelled that it was a sin, and he would go to hell. He tried to choke her into submission, then stabbed her fourteen times. She survived in hospital for two days, forgave her attacker, asked God's forgiveness of him, and died holding a crucifix and medal of Our Lady. She was listed as a martyr and on June 24, 1950, was canonized a saint by Pope Pius XII.
