Quote From: jamie63sI have paid attention to what people are saying about this sexual molestation case, and had to throw in my two cents. Based on the allegations of sexual molestation of his daughter, Jeremy should have no contact or at the very most supervised visitations at a child advocacy center. Has this child been forensically interviewed by a trained interviewer? It does not sound like she has. Any allegation of sexual abuse of a child, with the reaction that I saw on the tapes deserves investigtion.
I don't know which state this case is located in, but I have a hard time believing that CPS would leave the child in that situation. If the mother has allowed the child to continue seeing her father and there has indeed been molestation going on, then she is just as guilty as he is in not protecting her child.
The mother has no choice. Either she allows the visits or she goes to jail. There seems to be plenty of evidence to support the allegation that Jeremy abused his daughter and yet nothing seems to done to protect the little girl. This whole show has made me furious and frustrated.
I am disappointed that Dr. Phil hasn't gone to the heart of the matter, namely protected the child. Instead, the show focuses on giving Jeremy a voice to claim his innocence and on attacking the mother who I believe is TRYING to protect her daughter. Any mother would be emotional if they suspect that their child is being abused. Any mother would do whatever it takes to protect that child INCLUDING going on national TV to do so.
And to presume that CPS is doing their job at all times and would take the time to investigate is shortsighted. How many stories have to come forward about THEIR neglect before Dr. Phil will acknowledge that THEY could make an error in judgment.
It's frustrating to hear this story. Here is a child with physical and emotional signs of sexual abuse on National TV and STILL nobody is listening to her. Still nothing is being done. Still the mother is being threatened with jail for DARING to suggest that the father (who failed a lie detector test inspite of efforts to fake the results) molested the child, and that poor little girl is being sent off to visit her father without supervision.
What is the message we viewers are supposed to take in, Dr. Phil? All I want to hear is that this child is safe and NOT that she is still in danger.
