13 siblings ages 2 to 29 'held captive' by parents, some shackled, officials say - Sensationalist Headlines

I grew up in Riverside County and this doesn't surprise me at all. Tons of wackos live there and I'd hear stories like this kinda often.

If anyone was curious there has been details surrounding the case and how the parents were discovered by Police. I am listing this, but it is Dailymail so high scrutiny is required still, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless.

Plus the fact that he let his wife die. Dude was honestly kind of a shitstain.

Apparently the parents pleaded not quilty.

[QUOTE=Tudd;53063999]Apparently the parents pleaded not quilty.[/QUOTE] What?

[QUOTE=phygon;53064635]What?[/QUOTE] The parents, they plead not guilty.

As of yesterday the parents were officially charged with the following: [QUOTE]David Turpin, 56, and Louise Turpin, 49, were each charged with multiple felony counts of torture, child abuse, abuse of dependent adults and false imprisonment, Riverside County Dist. Atty. Michael Hestrin announced. David Turpin also was charged with one count of a lewd act on a child by force. If convicted, they face up to 94 years to life in prison. They were arrested this week on suspicion of torture and child endangerment.[/QUOTE] [URL="www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-perris-couple-children-endangered-20180118-story,amp.html"]source[/URL] They pled not guilty to all charges. Scumbags can't even take responsibility now that they've been caught

They're pretty fucked the moment they end up in custody, I don't imagine that this will end well for them.
