Mother convicted in Daughter's Torture

Pa. Mother Sentenced in Daughter's Torture



PITTSBURGH (AP) — A woman convicted of beating her 7-year-old daughter with a dog chain, burning her wrists on a stove, pouring bleach on her, and forcing her to eat cat food and salt was sentenced Wednesday to 25 to 70 years in prison.

Debra Liberman, 52, had been convicted of four counts of aggravated assault and one count of arson for setting a furnace filter on fire in a coal cellar where she had locked the naked and wet girl.

Haley Liberman was not hurt in the fire. But the girl was "terrorized physically and emotionally and psychologically battered," prosecutors said.

Police investigated after reports of screams coming from Liberman's home in February 2004 and said they found the girl in a closet.

Haley, now 9, lives in Virginia with her father, Liberman's ex-husband.

Defense attorneys called the sentence inappropriate and said the case would be appealed.

They had argued that Liberman had temporary psychosis from asthma medication and didn't realize what she was doing. Not a new story but disgusting, none the less, her argument of temporary psychosis from not having her asthma medication is just as disgusting, this is a seven year old child. A very small human being who was abused by her own mother in ways not imaginal in most human minds.

Thats what wrong with our justice system, too many slaps on the wrist, and lawyers crying over harsh sentences. When will we as americans demand harsher sentencing. I am glad the Jury gave her the 25-75 years in prison.  
Date: 2/3/2006 9:58:00 PM  From Authorid: 48250    I agree with PsyGuy., and there is no excuse for this , Ever....T/C  
Date: 2/3/2006 10:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 53961    ...and all the people who can't have children...  
Date: 2/3/2006 10:06:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341    I agree Psy, I just can't imagine the pain and suffering this little one endured. And by her own mother. I would do anything to help stop child abuse, I can't stand thinking about the little ones like this who suffer and just wish I knew why, perhaps that would be the key to end the pain for children who suffer from parental abuse. I love children and would give all that I have just to never read a story like this again. It is heartbreaking, and child abuse is something I can't understand, can't imagine why and even worse, can't grasp any reason why anyone who kills or tortures a child would want to go on living. Andrea Yates is a prime example, what does life hold for anyone after they have drowned five of their own babies? Is there a reason and is there any amount of hope for ever having a normal life again? And how could there be? How could one ever let go?  
Date: 2/3/2006 10:16:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341    No excuse, and no reason. I pray every day for children who suffer from abuse and those who have suffered. I have seen the results of neglect and abuse and it will always tear at my heart and be the reason why I post these stories. Let child abuse end.  
Date: 2/3/2006 10:56:00 PM  From Authorid: 15070    I believe in the Death Penalty for child abuse cases. And since what I have to say would not be "g"-rated, I will stop now.  
Date: 2/3/2006 11:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 42945    What makes these people tick??? they are not fit to inhabit the earth...and that poor little girl, how can she possibly grow into normal adulthood when she has been terrorized like that...poor little darling, my heart goes out to her and other children like her who are at the mercy of these people who call themselves mothers...*hugs*  
Date: 2/3/2006 11:41:00 PM  From Authorid: 36766    Jesus... some ppl, I swear. & I don't even remember this happening in Pittsburgh.  
Date: 2/3/2006 11:44:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341    Spirit Child and Zema, I feel exactly the same way. I appreciate you caring about this enough to comment and help in bringing awareness to the cycle of child abuse. We have to be there for the little ones. Find ways to stop child abuse, and those little ones who suffer most by those who they should be able to trust and believe in.

Date: 2/4/2006 8:49:00 AM  From Authorid: 13729    OMG how depressing.....  
Date: 2/7/2006 10:11:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 12341    Depressing? I imagine it was more than that to the child.  
Date: 3/27/2006 2:06:00 PM  From Authorid: 13729    Yes, I meant it was depressing to me Brenda...To read yet another horror story that happened to a child.......
