In the early 90′s sitcom-star and funny lady Roseanne Barr began to claim that she, as well as her sisters and brother, had been physically and sexually abused by parents Helen and Jerome Barr. Barr’s first memoir mentioned none of this; she claims to have repressed the memories until later in her life. Remix! Barr penned a second memoir (a do-over) which exposed the abuse and its effect on her life, including what she says is multiple personality disorder. Barr’s siblings and parents denied the charges, hired a high-profile lawyer, and publicly called Barr a psychopathic liar. Lie detector tests used on Roseanne’s parents came back with negative results. Even so, Roseanne Barr remained estranged from her family for the next 10 years.
