Escape From A House Of Horrors FULL AUDIO

PERRIS, Calif. -- Jordan Turpin quietly climbed up on a windowsill of her parents' home without them knowing and dropped down into the outside world.

The 17-year-old had only been outside a few times in her entire life and she was terrified. Her hands were shaking uncontrollably as she held a deactivated cell phone her parents didn't know she had, but thinking of her siblings chained up inside the house, she worked up the courage to dial 911.

"I was always terrified that if I called the cops or tried to escape, I would get caught, and then I knew I would die if I got caught," Jordan, now 21, told ABC News' Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview. "But at the end, when I saw all my younger siblings, I knew that's what I had to do."

Jordan's bravery that day in January 2018 freed herself and her siblings from a life of horrific abuse and captivity at the hands of their parents, David and Louise Turpin, who are now in prison for beating, shackling and starving 12 of their 13 children.

"That was my only chance," Jordan said. "I think it was us coming so close to death so many times. If something happened to me, at least I died trying."

Jordan and her eldest sibling, Jennifer Turpin, are telling their story for the first time in an exclusive interview with Sawyer. They are the first of any of the Turpin children to share their stories. In their interview, the Turpin daughters described physical abuse and being deprived of food, hygiene, education and health care for years.

"The only word I know to call it is 'hell,'" said Jennifer Turpin, reflecting on the trauma of her childhood

Growing up, Jennifer Turpin attended public school from first to third grade but then her parents took her out. From then on, the parents claimed to be homeschooling their children but weren't in reality. The children were rarely allowed to leave their home when the family lived in Texas and then in California, they said they were never allowed outside without their parents.

"We [weren't] even allowed to stand up. We were supposed to be sitting down all the time," added Jennifer, now 33. "Most of the time we were up at night and then sleeping in the day."

In the family's Perris, California, home that Jordan escaped from, she told investigators she was kept in a bedroom where two little sisters were chained on and off for months. She said she and her siblings lived in filth and that she hadn't bathed in seven months

Jennifer said for years she and her siblings only ate once a day, primarily peanut butter sandwiches, bologna, a frozen burrito or chips, while their parents ate fast food and other full meals. She said some of the children would try to "steal" food and their parents would beat them or chain them up for it. When rescued, all of the children except for the youngest, a toddler, were severely malnourished, prosecutors said.

An 11-year-old child was so malnourished that her arm circumference was the equivalent of a 4-and-a-half month old baby, investigators said.

Jordan said she hadn't been to a doctor in five years, she said, and had never been to a dentist in her life.

The plan to escape

In 2016, Jordan said she got a hold of one of her parents' old smartphones. It opened up a whole new world she had never seen before, and eventually she discovered Justin Bieber's music videos.

"I don't know where we would be if we didn't watch Justin Bieber," Jordan said. "I started realizing that there is a different whole world out there... I wanted to experience that."

The smartphone became a critical escape for Jordan. She said she watched Bieber's interviews, movies and used it to make little videos to post on social media. One day, she said someone commented on one of her posts to ask why she was always inside and awake at night.

"I did tell him that I didn't really go to school, and I wasn't allowed to go in the backyard or front yard and that I'm always kept inside, and I told him how we eat and how we're not allowed to get out of bed," she said. "He was like, 'This isn't right, you should call the cops' ... I was so happy to hear him say that because I was like, 'I was right. I was right that this situation is bad.'"

One day, a sibling in the house told their mother she had been watching Bieber's videos. Jordan said her mother came at her and began choking her.

"I thought I was going to die that day," she said. "After that whole day happened, I kept having nightmares that... she was going to kill me."

After that incident, Jordan secretly talked to a couple of her sisters about trying to come up with a plan to escape.

"She was like, 'We need to get out of here,'" Jennifer said. "So I gave her all the advice I knew, all the advice I could."

Jordan eventually decided her best option would be to climb out of her bedroom window and call 911.

Jennifer said she tried to draw a map of their neighborhood based on the few times she had been allowed outside. Jordan and another sister tried calling a taxi service to drive them to another state, and then they discussed something Jordan overheard on the rare instances her brother secretly watched the TV show "Cops": Calling 911, and making sure they had proof to back up their claims for police.

"[I told her] get pictures, anything to prove so they can't think you're a teenager looking for attention," Jennifer said.

On Jan. 14, 2018, Jordan realized time was running out. She and Jennifer heard her mother scream that the family was moving to Oklahoma.

"If we went to Oklahoma, there was a big chance that some of us would have died," Jordan said of her severely malnourished and frail siblings.

At the time, she said two of her sisters were in chains for stealing their mother's candy. One of them, she said, had been chained up for 15 straight days.

She said she asked her sisters, chained to a bed, for permission to take their photos before doing so, which she did with her brother's old cell phone that she had secretly gotten hold of.

"They said, 'yes,'" Jordan said. "They knew why I was taking pictures, and they knew what it was for, they were letting me."

"The very next day we were moving. It was literally now or never," Jennifer added.

The escape

Jordan said she placed pillows under a blanket to make it look like she was asleep, in case anyone looked into her room. She said she put on some clean clothes, gathered her pre-packed bag and slipped out of the window. Then she ran.

Once outside, Jordan didn't know where to turn. She was standing in the road, she said, because "I didn't even know about the sidewalks."

"I had no idea what direction to go. I was so scared," Jordan continued. "I was trying to dial 911, but I couldn't even get my thumb to press the buttons because I was shaking so bad."

Jordan reached a dispatcher who kept her talking as she wandered the neighborhood. Eventually, the dispatcher helped guide the shaky and confused girl to a stop sign where she could wait for a deputy to arrive.

"I was telling them everything: We don't go to school, we live in filth, how we starve and all this stuff," Jordan said. "Because I had to make sure that if I left, we wouldn't go back."

"[Talking to the dispatcher], I was like, 'I'm scared [my parents] are going to come,'" she continued. "They would just kill me right there, especially if they knew I was on the phone with the police."

Jordan said she was petrified that law enforcement wouldn't believe her.

"I was freaking out because I was, like, 'Wait, are they gonna take me back there?' I was so scared," she said. "I was so nervous because it was -- I've never had a conversation with a stranger before.

Deputy Anthony Colace was coming to the end of a long and busy graveyard shift when he took the dispatcher's call to assist on a runaway call. Colace said the majority of runaway calls only require taking the child home to their family.

When he arrived, Jordan quickly tried to tell him her life story and then he asked her a critical question: "Do you have pictures of that?"

She showed him the photos of her dirty, shackled sisters, explaining that the chains were punishment for taking food.

"They looked very sad, malnourished, they were very pale. They had bags underneath their eyes," Colace told ABC News. "Once I saw that photo, it really sealed the deal for me."

Colace asked if Jordan was injured, and she asked what "injured" meant. He further explained to ask if she was hurt. She said no. He also asked her if she was on medication and she explained she didn't know what "medication" meant.

On Colace's body cam, Jordan is heard telling him that if her parents found her outside they would kill her. As he's listening to Jordan describe the horrors inside the home, Colace was impressed by her courage. Through his questioning, he could tell she'd had little education.

"I was just thinking how smart and how brave she was," he said. "I asked her what her middle name was and she said 'Elizabeth.' I asked her to spell it. She couldn't spell it."

Anissa Weier | Slender Man Stabbing | *Disturbing Full Police Interrogation

Anissa Weier | Slender Man Stabbing | *Disturbing Full Police Interrogation

Anissa Weier | Slender Man Stabbing | *Disturbing Full Police InterrogationThe Slender Man (also spelled Slenderman) is a fictional supernatural character that originated as a creepypasta Internet meme created by Something Awful forum user Eric Knudsen (also known as "Victor Surge") in 2009. He is depicted as a thin, unnaturally tall humanoid with a featureless head and face, wearing a black suit.Stories of the Slender Man commonly feature him stalking, abducting or traumatizing people, particularly children. The Slender Man is not confined to a single narrative but appears in many disparate works of fiction, typically composed online.On May 31, 2014, two 12-year-old girls in Waukesha, Wisconsin held down and stabbed a 12-year-old classmate 19 times. When questioned later by authorities, they reportedly claimed that they wished to commit a murder as a first step to becoming proxies for the Slender Man, having read about it online. They also stated that they were afraid that Slender Man would kill their families if they did not commit the murder. After the perpetrators left the scene, the victim crawled out of the woods to a roadway. A passing cyclist alerted authorities, and the victim survived the attack. Both attackers have been diagnosed with mental illnesses but have also been charged as adults and are each facing up to 65 years in prison. One of the girls reportedly said Slender Man watches her, can read minds, and could teleport.Experts testified in court that she also said she conversed with Lord Voldemort and one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.Milwaukee teen Anissa Weier was sentenced to 25 years in a mental health facility in 2017, for the 2014 stabbing of a classmate. Weier's accomplice in the crime was a friend called Morgan Geyser, who was also a 12-year-old like Weier when they planned and stabbed classmate Payton Leutner in the nearby woods, later telling authorities that the attempted murder was supposed to keep the legend-horror character Slender Man from killing their families.Where is Morgan Geyser now?At 19, Geyser is still at the unnamed mental hospital where she was sentenced 40 years after she pled guilty to the attempted first-degree murder of Leutner. Geyser had reportedly pled guilty to the crime to avoid prison, but she was ultimately found not guilty on grounds of insanity. Geyser was later diagnosed with schizophrenia, and following her 2017 conviction, her attorneys have argued that she should have been tried in juvenile court as she was 12 at the time of the stabbing.On September 11, 2020, her defense team appealed to the Supreme Court, to toss out Geryser's conviction in adult court. This came after Wisconsin’s 2nd District Court of Appeals had denied Geyser's appeal to have her conviction overruled, twice by then. Geyser's attorney Matthew Pinix had claimed at the time that his client should have been charged with attempted second-degree intentional homicide, which would have sent the case to juvenile court.Who is Morgan Geyser?On May 31, 2014, three pre-teens — Geyser, Weier, and Leutner, woke up from a sleepover to celebrate Geyser's 12th birthday. The girls then went to a local Waukesha park, where Geyser and Weier stabbed Leutner 19 times and left her for dead. The 12-year-old victim however managed to crawl her way out of the woods and was spotted by the side of the road by a passing bicyclist. Leutner survived, but it's been reported that two of the stab words were millimeters from her arteries. Shortly after she was found, cops found Geyser and Weier walking along the roads, claiming they were on their way to live with Slender Man.Geyser and Weier were arrested immediately and charged as adults the next day. The girls had confessed to the crime too, claiming they were terrified of Slender Man killing their families if they didn't murder Leutner. The story has become sensational in the years, because of the brutal nature of the crime from such young children. Having become the topic of countless documentary flicks and TV shorts, the Slender Man Stabbing continues to be one of the most notorious incidents. During the sentencing hearing, three years after the heinous attack on Leutner, professional opinions on Geyser's mental health and treatment needed were still conflicting. While her defense team tried to move her to an adolescent health facility, Judge Michael Bohren denied it, saying: "What we can't forget is this was an attempted murder."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/best-of-reddit-stories-2025-cheating-true-crime-aita-and-nsfw-stories--6476242/support.

This Nurse Executed His Entire Family Over Webcam Girl

This Nurse Executed His Entire Family Over Webcam Girl

This Nurse Executed His Entire Family Over Webcam GirlGrant Amato - Police Interrogation - Family found shot dead, parents and brotherA Florida man convicted of murdering his family over his relationship with a web cam girl was spared the death penalty Monday and instead will spend life behind bars.A jury recommended 30-year-old Grant Amato spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole for what prosecutors have said was the cold and calculated slayings of his parents, Chad and Margaret Amato, and brother Cody Amato on Jan. 24.Prosecutors contend Grant Amato killed his family after they demanded he cut off his relationship with a Bulgarian web cam model on an adult website, according to the Orlando Sentinel.Before the brutal slayings, Grant Amato had stolen approximately $200,000 from his father and brother to facilitate his relationship with the webcam model, named Silvie.Prosecutors believe Grant systematically killed each member of his family on Jan. 24, first killing his mother around 4:45 p.m. She was discovered “face-down dead at her computer desk,” prosecutor Stewart Stone told the jury.Grant then killed his father when he came home from work, before waiting for more than four hours with the dead bodies of his parents for his brother Cody to come home from work. Grant then shot Cody and staged the scene to look like an apparent murder-suicide, with Cody being the gunman, prosecutors said.However, police soon arrested Grant and charged him with the crimes.Grant’s surviving brother, Jason Amato, spoke in court Monday to describe his tremendous loss.“It’s hard to go through the grieving process when there are multiple losses and uncertainty in the future,” he said, according to local station WESH. “Through all this, though, I’m a proud Amato, and I will rise up smarter and stronger than before.”Prosecutors had sought the death penalty in the case, however, jurors were unable to reach the unanimous decision required in the state for capital punishment.Grant’s defense team had argued during the trial that the prosecution’s timeline for the murders did not fit the evidence.Defense attorney Jeff Dowdy described the jury’s decision to recommend life in prison “bittersweet.”“We fought hard for the guilt phase, unfortunately that did not go our way. But saving our client’s life, that’s the so-called prize in this. Our heart goes out to Jason Amato,” he said.The defense now plans to appeal the verdict.Prosecutors contend that the jury’s decision to opt for life in prison was likely made out of mercy.“I think it was a matter of pure mercy,” Stone said, according to WOFL. “It’s very difficult to get 12 people to agree to impose the death penalty. It’s a very difficult decision to do.”JCS criminal psychology Interrogation jcs inspired solved mystery true crime breakdown JCS criminal psychology Interrogation video criminal psychology storytelling Criminal,Investigations,Interrogations,truecrime,crimedocumentary,documentary,courtroom,detectiveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/best-of-reddit-stories-2025-cheating-true-crime-aita-and-nsfw-stories--6476242/support.
