Those were sightings by neighbors, so they may have been mistaken.

I am sure the whole compound will now, finally, be searched. It is sad, the original girl and now her daughters will need years and years if not a lifetime of work to repair the damage this man - and his wife - have done to them.

Similar to Fritzl? (IIRC) in Austria.

The psychiatrists are in for one hell of a fight to achieve anything resembling normal kids at this point.

Hopefully the rest of the family can support them and help them get to a somewhat normal life.

No education from the time she was kidnapped, no checkups at the doctor or dentist for her or for her children, aside from the daily horror that she lived. Prison is too good for these people.

Let's hope! It doesn't sound like law enforcement in that area has been too "on top of things" for the past 18 years

When I read this I couldn't understand how he could live in a neighborhood like Antioch and not be discovered by neighbors. Housing in that area is very compact and yards are only separated by fences. I did a Google Earth of 1554 Walnut Avenue Antioch and it shows the tent city very clearly in the back yard. The reason more neighbors were not involved is because the property is flanked on two sides by commercial property. There was only one neighbor that had visual access to his tent city. I believe the police were still responsible for not catching this guy years ago.

I read earlier that the neighbor lady questioned the tents but her husband basically told her they should mind they're own business and not get involved. They could hear the kids outside playing.

I guess everyone has heard by now the story that this pervert is giving the police/public. He says he's turned his life around after the birth of the first daughter and what the public will discover about this story will be heartwarming. I'm not seeing anything heartwarming about it.

His own family says he's crazy.

I'll pray for the young mother and her two young girls. What a life they've had.

Has anyone heard what his wife's part was in this nightmare?

One story I read said a neighbor did complain and the police went to the house saw the backyard, that looked small and "normal". But they didn't have a search warrant so they didn't investigate further.

I have no clue what role the wife played, but I feel she is just as guilty as he is. Also, his mother was living there as well. They had to have known this was going on.

Her role was co-conspirator plan and simple. She needs to fry right there with her husband.

Oh I so agree.. They have said the wife admitted knowing about it.. They are thinking that she prob help her husband do the kidnapping in 1991..
