(Original Air Date: 10/26/06) Backstabbing takes many forms –- lying, spreading gossip and fueling nasty rumors. Dr. Phil’s guests say the ultimate betrayal didn’t come from a stranger, but from their own flesh and blood! Stacy accuses her younger sister, Christy, of being a traitor. She says Christy reported her and her husband to Child Protective Services for allegedly having child porn on the family computer! Christy sticks to her story, and vows to help put her sister and brother-in-law in jail. How far will she go? Stacy’s 16-year-old daughter claims her Aunt Christy is a liar, and says she’s ruining their family. Can these two sisters overcome the conflict between them, or is their relationship at the point of no return? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.

Find out what happened on the show.

Thanks for this

Quote From: flygirljc

There has been more than one incidence in the state ofOklahoma where children have died due to horrible abuse & the family &abuse have been investigated thoroughly & the child ends up dead because no one stood up for the truth & even the authorities did not take action & so a beautiful young girl/baby is dead. I don't know why this happens, but it does happen; so don't ever rule it out because the reports don't say any thing but "RULED OUT!"

I will tell you this & Dr. Phil should know as a counsellor tha  tchildren will not turn in or betray their parents in the issues of abuse.  I also grew up in a very small town & my dad was an alcoholic & physically, emotionally, verbally abused my mother, me & my sister.  We never reported this abuse due to the fear that we would be killed by our father.  Fear causes many lies in abusive families & I'm surprised that this issue was not discussed on this show. 

Where was the father of this traumatized family - was he not willing to take a stand for himself or his family - I think the man  is very guilty & that is why he never showed his face in all this. The mother of the abusive situation now has to fin for herself in a small town that probably knows the truth for sure.  I will try to see how the lie detector tests go & if you know how to read body langauge the sister that is alleged to let her family be abused by the man/father - didn't set/look to well when challenged to take a lie detector test. 

My prayer is that even though this issue has been shown as a public spectacle, that nothing horrendous comes out of it like it sometimes does - that even though the truth was "trying" to be told -the evi manifested & lives were taken & scarred for life because no one would believe the truth - that is what deception is after all. 

I do not watch this program, but happen to be home on a vacation day & found that when people try to expose the truth -that there will always be opposition.  Ninety-nine percent of the people will not expose abuse or tell the truth about abuse in their lives, especially if they are still together as a family.  AND...I know that Dr.Phil knows this as a counsellor.
This needs no expanding.  Great Points.

 The lie detector test wont work with Christy,  because I think she believes what she is saying. I think she has mental issues she needs to work through.
So true!!!  If you believe what you say the test won't find it as a lie.

Quote From: anita3ttm

I also think maybe you should watch the show over. The only thing I saw were her tears she was shedding because her aunt is trying to destroy her family
THAT GIRL HAD TEARS FOR THE SHAME SHE FEELS AND THE FEAR SHE LIVES WITH EVERYDAY OF HER LIFE

to Christy and brother

The very idea that you are using the excuse that you want to stop the circle of abuse in your family  with this abuse that you are causing your sister and her family is a joke. All you have done is increase the abuse in your family . I was amazed at the look on christy and her husbands face today while they were talking. They had a vindictive, evil look when telling their story. This is a woman who has seen these kids 5 times in their life and the husband had never seen the husband or kids.. These two people (three with the brother) have a lot to pay for one day. They have completely made it their lifes goal to destroy this family only because stacy went back to her husband. If you look on these boards you will see from wives messages that porn is a problem with most husbands. Some people thinks its ok and some dont but thats their business but there is a difference in looking at porn and being a pediofile.  What these people have done took a porn tape and blew it out of reason.

   Stacys daughter on the show today appeared and talked like one of the most well adjusted children that I have ever seen. She seemed genuine and I think she has her brothers and sisters best interest at heart. To talk to 9 children in private and still not find evidence of porn or abuse is enough evidence for any body. This sister has jumped all over these peoples lives from her profession to her ability to earn money. She and her brother appear to have taken on the role in life of completely destroying their sister and her family and they have left no stone unturned and now they are using threats to public officials. This in its self shows that they will go to any extend to destroy their sister. Why do they want her in jail? Christy has completely convinced herself that she is telling the truth along with the help of her brother and husband and she will probably pass a lie detector test. So where will she be then.

 Stacy has nine children who from pictures looked happy, healthy and well nourished can you imagine the hurt her bro and sister have loaded onto her back. Her children have been the ones to suffer. Her youngest child was dismissed from nursey school because of  threats from their aunt and uncle trying to save them from abuse. I find that sick. 

I think Christy and her brother have made it their lifes ambition to destroy this family and then write a book about their investigation and persistance for combating pron and abuse.

It would be interesting to know the ages of the people on the porn in question.

I also find it hard to believe the abuse that the brother and sister claim from childhood because christy changed her  accounts of the story. Some parents used corporal punishment while raising their children years ago but their was a difference between punishment and abuse.

It seems to me if Stacys brother and sister had really wanted to help her if  there was abuse  they really took a bloody way to do it.

It seems every time Stacy wins one battle  they hit her with another such as her profession.

    I read one message on this board that was wondering why the husband wasnt on today. Im wondering why the brother wasnt on today if this was such an important issue in his life.

I think Christy has promised him something to go along with her or he didnt have his story down pat.

I feel like I am an adjusted person Ive been a nurse for 46 yrs dealing with abuse of all kinds but I dont think I have ever seen a more vindictive case of reverse abuse in my life for three people to completely try to destroy a family for their own sick reasons. I think Christy need professional help and if she doesnt get it she will finally destroy her self.

ya i know that was a mistake they should have had the cops come get the computer.

Quote From: wonders

Remember the show?  The computer in question was in Christie and her computer savy husbands hands for several months before being turned over.  And... there was a major news story on someone purchasing a computer at a major outlet and found porn on it once they set it up at home.  The DA and other law enforcement people questioned the chain of evidence!!!  IT WAS NOT FOUND that Stacey's husband put them there. 

 

Christie is not a leader I would want!  Making accusations and demanding that the findings prove you right is not a leader, it is a dictator.  This was investigated and she won't accept the findings.  I feel sorry for all family members involved.  But I would hate to think someone like Christie could decide what is right or wrong in any given household based on her own thinking.

 

IF she was abused she would be better served at this point to seek counseling to deal with the issues that still follow her in her daily life.  As to her being there for her sister during the seperation...... In any family things are said during these martial frays that are exagerated and should be taken as that.  Stacey was hurt and vunerable and looked to Christie for support.  NOT to have her life destroyed.

 

Child abuse is a very serious issue and should not be taken lightly and I don't.  But I do question Christies motives in going on this show.  She is still demanding to be RIGHT!!

10/26 Backstabbing Sisters

What i don't get is how Christy knows so much about Stacy's family if she's only seen the Children 5 times?

Christy's husband didn't know Stacey's husband at all.....i just find this all kind of weird. They obviously did have much contact with each other. My sister and i only talk on the phone or the Internet and i would never pretend to know what goes on in her house on a daily basis.

lie detector test

To the people continually asking about the lie detector test. There was none. You will have to continue to watch the show and find out when these two will return. I can't see that it will prove anything but I believe Dr. Phil knows what he is doing so it will turn out okay.........he hates child abuse as much as the next person and if he believed it were happening he would have stepped in. I just hope the poor sister that is being abused will be okay.

Quote From: nicolem29

Sure everyone makes mistakes, but questioning 7 children? You just cant make a mistake that huge!

I think some people are so desperate to believe this story that they'll believe anything, even a huge conspiracy to keep this ONE man from going to jail.

I think the people who believe Christy were probably abused or witnessed abuse themselves and are empathizing with a lie.

Quote From: iondetox

Most of your logic is contrary to ALL the expert opinions that I've heard over the years on Dr. Phil and Oprah.  Where do you get your information on children reporting child abuse in their own home?

Jeff

Dr. Phil and OPRAH?  EXPERTS?   They are entertainers Jeff not experts.  They do have experts on their shows who also make the circuits to keep us informed but........ I think all of us would be better served volunteering our time to womens shelters and opening our homes to children displaced by abuse.  To think that the two shows you mentioned give a full picture is not wise.
