CINCINNATI – Children rescued by a sister’s email cry for help to a teacher after they allegedly were beaten and tied to their beds, sometimes for weeks at a time, were happy just to be able to pick out their own snacks at the sheriff’s department once free, an investigator said.

“They knew that they weren’t going back into that environment,” said Capt. David Hall of the Scioto County Sheriff’s Office. “That we were there to rescue them from that and not put them back in a bad situation.”

An email was sent late last month to a teacher to call 911 from a desperate child that lead police and children’s services authorities to the arrests of the girl’s mother, grandmother and stepfather, Hall said. The three appeared in court on Wednesday.

These so called people are nothing short of the scum of the earth. Animals have more sense than they do. I would like to show them what Italian justice is like.

The children all were beaten and tied to their beds, and the 44-year-old man arrested in the case also is charged with repeatedly raping his stepdaughters, ages 9 and 11, and abusing their 8-year-old brother, police said.

The children are now safe and living in foster care.

Bottom feeders like the scum arrested should have been castrated when they were born so they couldn’t have kids. These horrible memories of abuse and torture are going to live with the kids for the rest of their live.

I wish the kids well.
