Lynda Coleman says her daughter, Caitlan, was an unemotional automaton who was afraid of her husband in the weeks after she and Joshua Boyle were released from captivity.

Boyle, 35, faces 19 charges, including sexual assault, assault and unlawful confinement for offences allegedly committed after he and Caitlan Coleman were released following five years as hostages of a Taliban-linked extremist group in Afghanistan.

Lynda Coleman says she visited her daughter twice in Ottawa in October and December 2017 and on both visits she found her to be frightened of her husband and robotic in emotion. Coleman says Boyle did not help his wife care for the couple's three children and expected her to change them and feed them even when she was sick and in the hospital.

Coleman says before meeting Boyle, her daughter was outgoing and imaginative but was a very different person after she and Boyle were released.

Calgary mother appeals conviction and sentence for son’s fatal staph infectionJennifer Clark’s handwritten notice of appeal says defence lawyers did not bring up inconsistencies in Crown medical expert testimony So they were way late taking the baby for medical help in the first place? That probably factored in the decision as well All the evidence points to them only choosing to seek medical help after many friends suggested as such and then only after the child became extremely unwell AND full of whatever bogus methods they attempted thus ruining a chance at the doctors being able to help fully.
