10 Children Living Amid Feces Were Tortured For 'Sadistic Purpose,' Police Say
NPR ^ | 15 May 18 | Sasha Ingber

Jonathan Allen and his wife, Ina Rogers, allegedly kept their 10 children in a squalid California home. Police charged Allen with torture and Rogers with neglect.

Behind closed doors, 10 children were living in a California home strewn with feces and rotten food. They were also physically abused for a "sadistic purpose," said Solano County Chief Deputy District Attorney Sharon Henry.

That conclusion was drawn after police received a report that the oldest child had gone missing. Officers arrived at the house on March 31 and found nine children — ranging in age from 4 months to 11 years — living in squalor.

According to Fairfield Police Lt. Greg Hurlbut, there was "garbage and spoiled food on the floor, animal and human feces and a large amount of debris making areas of the house unpassable."

The missing 12-year-old was found sleeping under a bush nearby, but officers decided to contact the Solano County Child Welfare Office which removed the children from the house. They were placed in the custody of relatives.

Then Child Welfare Services, the Fairfield Police Department's Family Violence Unit and the Solano County District Attorney's Office launched an investigation. They uncovered "a long and continuous history of severe physical and emotional abuse," the police said in a written statement.

Conversations with eight of the children revealed cruelty and brutality. The kids described "incidents of intentional abuse resulting in puncture wounds, burns, bruising and injuries consistent with being shot with a pellet gun or a BB gun," Hurlbut said.

But the children's maternal grandmother described Allen as "a monster" to NBC Bay Area. She provided photos of a room where she said he worshiped the devil. "He would put duct tape on our eyes, lay us on the floor, tell us we couldn't move, and if we did he would just pounce us and beat us all in the stomach. He said the demons were making him do it."

The bathroom of the home in Fairfield, Calif., is strewn with feces.

Look at the pathetic heart one of the child drew on the toilet seat....trying to create some small semblance of hope in a hopeless situation.

If you have a child, or grandchild, hug them the next time you see them.

I find it hard to believe that the relatives of this pair would make suitable guardians for children.

Racist cops, right?

The monster’s a victim? Four hundred years of slavery made him torture his children... blah blah blah...

If he gets a white liberal elite judge he can sell that BS...

When you pay people to have children, things like this happen.

[[I don’t understand why the poop is not in the potty?]]

These two democrats should get the death penalty. Of course, they don’t give death penalty sentences for these crime, but they should. California death penalty doesn’t really mean much.

Sick people, sick system. Damn democrats.

You don’t say? And here I thought that torture was for altruistic purposes. Silly me.

There should also be charges against this ‘grandmother’ for aiding & abetting & failure to report these conditions”.

How much government help was this bunch getting? When you pay people to breed like alley cats- this is what you get. 11 kids! Sterlization was called for after the first, and upon mental evaluation and definitely after the first report of incompetency and abuse.
