Couple Arrested for Years of Abuse and Neglect of Four Children in Florida
A couple has been charged with heinous sexual abuse and neglect after allegedly confining four children in a semi-truck, described by authorities as a ‘rolling prison,’ for nearly six years. Prosecutors revealed that the children were kept in squalid conditions without proper care, facing maltreatment and denial of basic needs such as food, showers, and medical attention. The Florida Attorney General announced the arrests, stating that more charges could be forthcoming as the investigation continues. The couple, hailing from Jacksonville and Atlanta, was accused of perpetrating this horrific abuse since 2019, leaving the children malnourished and without schooling.
