    Default Shackled children found in Perris, California home

    Two parents have been arrested in California after police found 13 people allegedly being held captive at their home, including some "shackled to their beds with chains and padlocks".
    David Allen Turpin, 57, and Louise Anna Turpin, 49, were held on charges of torture and child endangerment.
    The 13 people - aged between two and 29 - were found in a house in Perris, 59 miles (95km) south-east of Los Angeles, police say.
    They are all believed to be siblings.
    Officers were alerted by one of the victims, who on Sunday managed to escape and call the emergency number "from a cellular device she found inside the house", the Riverside Sheriff's Department said in a statement.
    The girl - who police said appeared to be "only 10 years old and slightly emaciated" - claimed that 12 of her siblings were being held captive by their parents.
    Police officers later found "several children shackled to their beds with chains and padlocks in dark and foul-smelling surroundings".

    What the Hell is wrong with people? Bet they're collecting welfare $ on them. Scumbags. Need to shackle THEM up and not feed THEM.

    The father is/was a defense industry engineer making like $150,00 a year. Those poor kids, at least now the impoverished State of California is enriched for having to care for them.

    I read the article, and cannot figure out how you know that kind of detail.

    "David Turpin was earning $140,000 a year as an engineer for a defense contractor and wife stayed at home "

    At least that was his reported income 7 years ago.

    $140,000 in that area is like about $100,000 in other places in the nation. And for a NORMAL family of that size, that is NOT a lot of money.

    That woman and that man are absolutely monsters. My heart breaks for those kids. They will never be normal.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Two of them are adults. I don't get THAT. Supposed to be more info out today.

    Each parent is held on $9M bail. I don't guess they'll be posting bond.

    My guess is they're being held in isolation, because if they put either of those two in general pop, their life isn't worth a plug nickel... so... basically, general pop is where they belong.

    Default Just wonderin...

    Were those shackled children found in MAXINE WATERS district? Or possibly NANCY PELOSI'S?

    If so. That should require an investigation from the OBAMA-CLINTON hide from the Law center for hypocrites, liars, and cheats of CALIFORNICATION.

    So, this is for them.

    PUBLIC FLOGGING EVERY DAY FOR A MONTH AND IF THEY SURVIVE THAT, THEN GIVE THEM 40 YEARS IN PRISON WITH NO CHANCE OF PAROLE..
    EITHER THAT OR ELSE JUST SHOOT THEM BOTH...
    Myself, I think --just shoot them..-Tyr
    18 U.S. Code § 2381-Treason Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

    This has to be one of the most bizarre crimes ever, so it's a good topic, thanx LTG --

    But I try to protect myself from news about cruelty or awful things happening to children.

    I have a lot of rules since the 2016 Election Season when news reporting totally fell apart in America.

    -- No lurid news -- lurid crimes or two-headed babies
    -- No naked savages: if herders and farmers are going at it in Nigeria, I don't want to know
    -- No Trump Hate
    -- No future talk, since no one can predict the future
    -- No polls. Any article mentions a poll, I stop reading.
