TURPIN TORTURE BASED ON BIBLE!
Daughters reveal how scripture-spouting mom & dad justified keeping kids in chains
TWISTED parents David and Louise Turpin — who kept their 13 kids prisoner in the family’s ramshackle house of horrors — used the Bible to justify their unspeakable torture and abuse, their daughters finally reveal.
For the first time since their despicable dad, David, 60, and mom, Louise, 53, were each sentenced to at least 25 years in prison after pleading guilty to torture, child cruelty and false imprisonment, their daughters Jennifer, 33, and Jordan, 21, expose how they and their siblings were kept in chains of fear under the threat of severe beatings with belts, sticks and even death!
Incredibly, the women claim their wicked parents justified their unspeakable torture by insisting they were following the Bible.
“They loved to point out things in Deuteronomy, saying that, ‘We have the right to do this to you,’ ” reveals Jennifer, who says her parents even insisted “they had the right to kill us if we didn’t listen.”
The terrifying saga of the Perris, Calif., family was exposed after brave Jordan, then 17, escaped through a window — taking a cellphone — and called cops on Jan. 14, 2018.
“My whole body was shaking. I couldn’t really dial 911,” she says. “I think it was us coming so close to death so many times. If something happened to me, at least I died trying.”
Amazingly, the 911 call was extra scary — because she had never spoken to anyone outside the family!
At the time of the rescue, the children ranged in age from two to 29 years and all, except the youngest, were severely underweight and filthy since they weren’t allowed baths.
‘Our parents, they abuse us,” she told officers. “But I called because my two little sisters are chained up right now because they stole food because they were hungry.”
