Mary has told friends that the counselor who wrote this evaluation wildly exaggerated the truth, which was that in an innocent childhood exploration, she had once touched a brother's penis. She has told friends she hopes to sue the counselor. Friends say Letourneau is also angry with Fielder, claiming he not only interviewed her under false pretenses (she believed...
