Story here.Pretty goddamned sick, and "squalor" apparently doesn't begin to describe it. However, Lt. Missy Collins of the Lavonia, GA police department said something that's pretty fucking stupid:
Thurmond ruled the family with an iron fist. Sometimes, he'd fly into a rage and hit his children — ages 14, 13, 12 and 9 — with a steel-toed boot, Collins said. Other times, the children told Collins they would hear their father attacking and raping their mother in a bedroom.
"I asked, 'Did you go to help?' And they looked at me like it was the strangest question. Dad pretty much did whatever he wanted to do," Collins said.
These children have been imprisoned and abused for three years, and this idiot cop asks "Did you go to help?" What the fuck were they supposed to do? Hit
themselves with the steel-toed boot to save him the trouble? As if they haven't gone through a bad enough ordeal, now they get to spend the rest of their lives blaming themselves for their mother's repeated rapes? Who let this flatfoot anywhere near these children? Hell, why didn't
she go ahead and hit them with the steel-toed boot?
