In a close-knit community, lies spread quickly and power can overstep its bounds... On 6 February 2007, Dr. Scott Dobbs was told by his church, Figtree Anglican, that an allegation of sexual abuse had been made against him by a young woman. The leadership refused to tell him anything further. As painful as this was for Scott, because he knew he was innocent, he never suspected that it would lead to the victimisation of his family by the church they had served faithfully for 12 years. However, within the week, his wife Machelle and their six children were subjected to bullying, ostracism and emotional abuse from Figtree's clergy, staff and some parishioners, which still continues to this day. While the allegations against Scott have finally been dismissed, no one has acknowledged the pain that Figtree intentionally inflicted on the rest of the Dobbs' family.
