The whole family seems to have issues. A lot of kids too. Another poster asked that; this sister has 5 kids and the one on 20/20 has 6. Someone mentioned the brother has 5.

It's really strange that all of the sisters were molested by the same family member. Considering age difference, this must have went on for over a decade. Other family must have suspected and if not they are keeping it a secret for some reason.

That makes sense to me as when I saw they had 10 girls and only 3 boys, my first thought was, "why are there so few male children"?

Seems unlikely to me that a large family would skew so heavily female, but I may be totally wrong about that.
My dad is from a family of 14. There were 10 girls and four boys. I think the boys are children #4, 7, 10, and 13. His father game from a family of nine with seven boys and two girls. The girls were the youngest.

Three out of thirteen boys doesn't concern me. I think if we knew more of the ages of the children, we would know if anyone is missing. We know the oldest child is 29 and the youngest 2. The child before child #13 is 10 years older so around 12. Just guessing 29-12=17 years for twelve children. 17/12= 1.4 years between children so a new baby roughly every 16 months. Once they get birth dates and possibly birth certificates, they can start figuring out if anyone is missing. That ten year baby gap is kind of interesting, but not really all that uncommon in normal families.

Maybe more likely that was their attempt at wacky, entertaining marketing material to try and get a reality show deal. All of this against the insane backdrop of starving and chaining up their kids in their own feces. I bet these two have narcissistic personality disorder in how they cruelly use their children only as objects-props to make them look good in addition to psychopathy.

Can the story get any more incredibly demented and weird?
Probably. The type of people who would meet random strangers for sex are capable of a lot of weirdness...I didn't think about the videos being for potential swinging partners. I was wondering if they were into something kinky when the sister said it was Louise who unlocked the door when she was in the shower. She then let David in and both wouldn't leave.

They were really secretive even back then. The sister said she was forbidden to tell anyone where she was and was ultimately kicked out of the house as she let coworkers know where she was staying. It may seem like TMI but I think the sister's are saying this publicly for a reason. What ELSE were they hiding? I thought the horror house was plenty....

Sweet Jesus...what a bunch of nutters those poor kids grew up with.

This is going to be a problem because the kids who are legally adults won't fit into the foster care system, but obviously need a significant amount of assistance.

The other family members shouldn't necessarily be excluded just because they had been abused, as well. They should, of course, be vetted to insure they are appropriate -- although I don't know what the state will do with the adult children. They absolutely will need a lot of resources.
One of the funds is being managed by a hospital affiliated charitable agency, which is promising that 100% of the funds will be used to the benefit of the victims. The other fund is being managed by the city government, which is promising to turn 100% of the funds collected after a transaction fee, about 97% will be turned over to the County to be used to the benefit of the victims.

Both fund sound pretty legitimate. I doubt that the administrators of the funds will take a chance on negative publicity, if they don't keep their promise to use the funds for the benefit of the kids. I doubt the money will be used for college education. For one thing I don't believe any of them have enough education to go to college at this point. Second, so far only about $10,000 has been collected for each of them. That's hardly enough to pay the cost of college tuition.

I would think their plan at this point is to use the money for food, clothing, and shelter. Without the aid, they would probably be divided up and put in various homeless shelters, at least the adults.

LOL, if they did that they would have to remove at least 50% of this kids in this country.

Lots of people don't follow the news or current events. They could have done a much better job of explaining what happened and why these kids need money imo.
"100 percent of all donations received from this campaign account to the County of Riverside to directly benefit the victims of this tragedy."

What more needs to be explained?

Also, the oldest child was born after four years of marriage.

Their ages are 2, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 24, 25, and 29.

Anyone else finding it strange that her family members (siblings) suddenly have all of this info on Louise and David. When the story first broke her sister presented them as a little odd. Her latest interviews are weird, suddenly she knows all of this stuff about their private life. And now there's a brother claiming he knows all about how they wanted to be reality show stars. I think the whole family is nuts.
