Summary

Think for a minute about your neighbors, especially the ones you don't know too well. Maybe there's a quiet couple on your street who tend to keep to themselves. Sure, you might see them walking out to their car, or say hi in passing, or simply notice that they aren't very social. But you don't know much about them. Now imagine that you see that couple being arrested in front of their house and discover to your horror that they had 13 children inside that they chained to their beds and starved- 13 children who had been enduring abuse for years in your totally normal subdivision. That's exactly what several Perris, California residents witnessed on January 14, 2018 when David and Louise Turpin were arrested on their quiet suburban street. Support us! Want ad free listening?
