      Synopsis


      Portrait of a Mad Man

      After Daddy Died is the shocking true story of how a family was affected by their father's psychotic behavior. They believed that he was literally psychotic, as he engaged in behavior that damaged his family for years to come. He was violent, and abused his wife , and eleven children on a constant basis. He was even violent towards those whom he thought had questioned or challenged him. His sadistic tendencies and abusive behavior pushed several of his children over the edge to the point of having mental breakdowns, encouraging them to commit murder or engage in acts of other violence. Some of the children were driven to molest some of their siblings. As he self-medicated with drugs and alcohol he became a Portrait of a Mad Man. His illness was never diagnosed professionally because he did not believe he had a mental problem. He was a cold-blooded career criminal who displayed a character of constant anger and rage. Some of what you will read may have the appearance of scenes from a horror movie or from a torture camp but these are real characters and real stories that reveal true confessions of criminal activities of murder, incest, rape, child abuse, child molestation, domestic violence, and kidnap. This man was totally out of control with no one to answer to because people were afraid of him, including his own family.

      August 21, 2008: A father is supposed to be a provider for the family, a good male role model, someone for the family to look up to. 'After Daddy Died: Portrait of a Mad Man' is Dr. Naomi Roberson's reflections on the ill doings of her father and the horrible effects they had on her family. Painting her father as a complete and utter sociopath who may have been clinically psychotic, 'After Daddy Died' tells of violence, sexual abuse, kidnapping, and other atrocious acts. A saddening story of the depths a father can sink to become a blight on the family, so far removed from what a father should be. Recommended for community library memoir collections.
