CHILD OF GOD SUES THE SECT
A woman is suing the leader of the Family religious sect claiming the sect submitted her to cruel & inhumane treatment as a child.
Anouree Crawford, 34, was raised as a member of the Family also known as the Children of God, from 1974 until 1987 when she was removed in a police raid.
In a statement of claim filed in the Victorian Supreme Court, Ms Crawford said she was starved, assaulted and forced to watch other children being abused.
She told The Age she now suffers from a severe psychiatric disorder and has been unable to obtain regular employment.
She also said she suffered from obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, an eating disorder and was unable to socialize.
She is seeking unlimited damages for injury and loss of earning capacity.
