Fatima's Former Foster Mother Says Fatima
Was Not Abused in Her Father's Home
In Breaking the Silence: Children's Stories it is
claimed--without any supporting evidence--that Fatima (named "Amina" in the
film) was abused by her father, Dr. Scott Loeliger, during the five years she
lived with him. Debbie Sheehan was Fatima's foster mother from October, 2002
until April, 2003. Her statement on the alleged "abuse" is below.
"When Fatima lived with me she and I were close and talked often. As a mandated
reporter, if I suspect a child may be in an abusive situation, I'm required to
report it. Fatima never indicated in any way that she had been abused or
mistreated in her father's home. I do not believe that she was ever abused in
her father's home."
