For years, David and Louise Turpin abused 12 of their 13 children, starving them, hitting them, depriving them of sleep and shackling them to furniture — torture that moved one of their daughters to tell a courtroom, “My parents took my whole life from me.”
Their daughter, speaking publicly for the first time, continued through tears: “Now, I’m taking my life back.” They were arrested in January 2018 after one of their children — a 17-year-old girl — escaped from the family’s home by climbing out a window, then called 911. Three of the siblings were chained to their beds when police arrived at the family’s house in Perris in January. The Turpins were unchaining two of them, an 11-year-old and a 14-year-old, as police stood at the door, Riverside County District Attorney Mike Hestrin told reporters after their arrest. Another sibling, a 22-year-old, was still chained to a bed when police entered the home.

Good.
