Children Rescued from Ohio Home

The Pure Report account · 2 sources · as of Jul 03, 00:45 UTC

Sixteen children were rescued from a dilapidated home in rural Ohio after being confined to just one room in deplorable conditions for much of the past four years. The children were living in wretched conditions with human waste all around, and some were unable to speak. One child, an 18-year-old, was developmentally disabled and could not even spell her name. The children's parents and two grandparents were charged with felony child endangerment. Vinton County Sheriff Ryan Cain remarked that most of the livestock was kept in better conditions than the children.
