- Thread starter Tovarisc

There aren't enough books in the world they can throw at these scumbags.
Hope they'll take the rest of their lives in prison to reflect on their actions.

Ages 2 to 29? What the fuck. They thought the 17 year old was 10 due to being so malnourished. Jesus
Edit - Meant to edit rather than reply to myself.
The 29 y/o was born ~1989. Has this been going on that long? The questions this raises are just horrible

Why would you do this? Humanity can be so fucked up sometimes.
I'm guessing not, considering they were so malnourished. My bigger question is how did nobody know? These children must have had identification or records - you'd think that 12 people just disappearing would show up on someone's radar. They had to have been enrolled in school at some point, or received some kind of identity cards. I just don't understand...

Wouldn't be surprised if the daughters were raped by the father...
If you Google the parent's names, there are other articles with pictures of the whole family going to Disney Land and shit. The last picture they posted on Facebook was from 2016, and the kid's bodies didn't look particularly malnourished or anything, so maybe they were only locked up for around a year?
Could so malnourished woman even have a baby?
17yo girl looked like 10yo to officers.
this is the sort of thing that Alex Jones would defend and he has in the past
absolutely disgusting

These photos are all from 2016
Something happened after this
I'm tearing up. I cant imagine being born into a world where you're parents are literal demons and having to go through that sort of torture for decades. These people should get the same treatment they gave to their children. Lock them to their beds and dont feed them. There is incompetence and then there is evil.
Big ups to the girl who made it out, risking it all, to get help for herself and her siblings.
An absolute hero in every sense of the word.

Wtf? They look so happy there. What the hell happened in the span of two years that caused this?
The parents deserve the same treatment in prison. 2 - 29 in their ages, my god. How many years have they robbed from these poor kids..? How can they acclimate to regular society? Even in the pictures above seem a little odd. There's a story behind this clearly.
So that pic was only 2 years ago and some of those kids in it are 29? Did they have some kind of developmental disorder? Or did they wheel the kids out of captivity to have pictures taken? So many questions.
I'm guessing some kind of fear of abandonment drove the parents crazy or maybe one of the kids met a boy/girl? That mom has the crazy eyes.

I know that its way to early for more details and some answers.... but I really want to know if those people have been chained up like that their entire lives or if it somehow happened recently. Either way, these parents are absolute scum and it boggles my mind that you can do this to someone, especially your own children.
edit - just saw the pictures.

Less we forget this monster who held 3 women captive for years, fathered children, and had barbecues with their neighbors as if nothing was wrong.
We don't have enough details in this case yet to say this is the same case, but appearances can be deceptive from the outside.

Yup. Crazy eyes are a thing.
Marching family outfits are now forever ruined to me.
Scary, what could happen ....material for a book..movie.
Fear the live not the dead....
Am I missing something? Is menopause at 30 now?
For a 17 year old's growth to be stunted to the level of a 10 year old this has been happening for years, probably since the oldest was born. Nothing changed in the last two years.
Outings aren't uncommon for captive people. They've probably been able to come out on occasion their entire lives. They wouldn't run away for fear of punishment. Plus, if they're not being fed or cared for they likely wouldn't have been able to get away without assistance. The girl who got out had an opportunity to get away and a moment of courage strong enough to do so, escape can be a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Yes.
Obviously there's ultimately something much darker than a welfare fraud scheme behind this, but they were absolutely getting some nice kickbacks from the state.
I'm disgusted and angered by the story, but at the same time I can't help but want to know how the hell this happened.
Still they by no means look malnourished in the pictures. In the very least they lived normal lives for brief moments of time. Also growth issues aren't necessarily exclusive to not being raised right (could be genetic all the same).
