Mother cleared of charges she duct taped foster kids
November 2003
DOYLESTOWN (AP) A woman accused of wrapping her foster children in duct tape was acquitted Monday night.
The defense lawyer for Colleen Broe, 34, of Levittown, said he would now try to get the foster children back into his client's care. "I believe in this woman from the bottom of my heart," attorney Andrew Schneider said. "A woman (who) did nothing but show love and compassion for these foster children and just got it right in the neck for doing this."
