From a young age, Foley is alleged to have verbally abused her. He once allegedly put her in a holdall and threatened to take her back to her mother. From the age of nine, she was forced to do housework. She was often grabbed by the hair. He also allegedly trod on her fingers when she fell, and almost drowned her on one occasion.
