A California foster family has been accused of sexually and physically abusing nine children – including five Turpin siblings placed in their care after they were rescued form horrific conditions.
In an affidavit, an investigator said that both minor and dependent adult foster children in the Olguin home were sexually abused, pulled by the hair and locked in their rooms.
The child was sometimes locked in her bedroom for nine hours a day, the investigator wrote. Four of the girls in the Olguin's care told officials they had been sexually assaulted – including two Turpin children, according to reports. "They forced the siblings to participate in a ‘circle confession talk.' The siblings were forced to admit to their past sibling abuses, which their biological parents had forced them to commit," the investigator wrote."The Olguins told the siblings non-participation would result in not seeing or visiting with their older siblings in the future."
