25 Years to Life for Parents Who Imprisoned Kids in ‘House of Horrors’
David and Louise Turpin each pleaded guilty to 14 charges, including...torture, adult abuse, child endangerment, and false imprisonment
the couple subjected 12 of their 13 children to “sadistic” treatment, refusing to let them shower more than once a year and allowing them just one meal per day. For the most part, the Turpins kept their kids chained to their beds, and would not unshackle them even to go to the bathroom....One child was reportedly permitted to attend a few classes outside the home, with his mother’s eagle-eyed supervision; the rest were “homeschooled”
