I have a strange question my friend asked me about yesterday.

When she was 12 her father (who she idolized) did 3.5yrs gaol time for drugs and attempted r**e,while inside he made some contacts and upon release started up his drug selling business.
His daughter was then 16 and very impressionable , the father introduced her to amphetamines and supplied it free to her - everytime she stayed at his place he just plied her with it, before then she had no idea about the drug and thought well if dads giving it to me she will be ok.
He then pressured her into selling it ect ect.. this went on for over a year til he got married and on the wedding nite the dad handed her some cocaine asnd said 'here have this'.. which she did.
she found herself with a drug problem.
Shes now 40 with a drug problem - is she able to sue the father for introducing her to drugs and the hell she has been through because of it?..
