Welfare Check Reveals A Horrifying Discovery 

Parents in court crying about they are sorry & want their kids Nooo they are crying because they got caught.

I will NEVER stop being SO VERY PROUD OF JORDAN!!!! The courage she showed by escaping that hellhole and getting help to save her siblings is UNIMAGINABLE!!! You keep ROCKING Jordan!!!!! ❤

This was not a welfare check, this was an escaped hostage child that brought the police back to save the rest of their siblings.

As terrible as the parents were, its even more appalling that "normal" people working for the government & healthcare system let them down.

Jordan is so intelligent. She was denied education, freedom, love and respect, but still managed to make a plan and act it out on the tiny window of chance she had. It's impressive how she knew people wouldn't believe her, and you can see how much efford she needs to speak a language she was never taught properly, and the bravery of approaching an older man she doesn't know and put her heart out like this. I wish all the authorities made what this policeman did to protect her when kids finally have a chance to speak up.

You can tell she has extreme developmental delays from being locked away. She is 17 but sounds like she is nine 😮

It's unbelievable the way these poor kids were treated AFTER their "rescue". CPS is sickening. The amount of times they end up making a child's life even worse is so deeply astonishing.

I’m so proud of Jordan for getting out and saving her siblings. I’m sure some of them wouldn’t be alive any longer.

The fact that these children were placed in foster care homes that further abused them is so sad. They said they would rather live back at home than endure the foster parents

From the bottom of my heart I wish these “kids” peace and all the happiness the world has to give. They’ve earned it. ❤

AND THIS, PEOPLE, ARE WHY CELL PHONES CAN DIAL 911 EVEN WITHOUT SERVICE

They tried to keep the kids together, put them in a “safe” foster home where the foster father s3xvally assaulted them. These kids have been failed so many times in so many ways.

You know what's even more sad? Is how these kids were treated after they were "rescued". They were all separated. Multiple children reported abuse of all kinds in their new foster homes. The adult children were left to fend for themselves. About 600k was raised in donations for them and the state of California "lost" it. One adult child was severely beaten and nobody helped or cared. None of the adults could even get $100 of THEIR MONEY to buy a bike to get to work to support themselves because tue state stole all the money. They couldn't get any state assistance either. Disgusting

I am so glad that Jordan rescued herself and her siblings, but I am so angry that the system let some of the younger kids down by placing them in a foster home where they were abused by the foster parents. It is so disgusting that those kids were abused after they finally got out of the horrific situation they were in. Jordan seems like an amazing woman. So happy she is free. ❤❤❤

Those creeps should NEVER be allowed to see their children or any children forever again, and should NEVER be released.

" What's medication? ". That line hit my stomach like a fist. Right in the bread basket. God Bless them all.

NO WELFARE CHECK AT THIS HOUSE. THE CHILD SAVED HER SIBLINGS NOT THE PROFESSIONALS. GOD BLESS ALL THESE CHILDREN ❤

Some of the younger children were put in foster homes, and they were abused there. So sad for them, left one abusive home to another.

Jordan is a real inspiration to many desperate and broken children. She's an incredible young lady. I wish her and her siblings a new life filled with peace, love and good health.

That young lady is an angel. A hero to her brothers and sisters.

It was so sad how she didn't even know what the word injury meant. The fact that they didn't know simple words like that shows you how manipulated their lives were and how brave it was for Jordan to help her family escape. The look on that mother's face said everything when she was told that there was a girl running round saying she came from there the moment he said it she knew what was coming.

The real sad part is if there is this 1 family that has lived for decades in this disgusting situation, there are many many more families not discovered...😢😢😢

Those poor kids suffering so much and then placed in a worse foster care situation. That was downright criminal of the county.

Living her whole life in these conditions and have the courage and intellect to take screenshots of the horrors to prove her statement is GOAT.

Despite having been captive and isolated, she's a really bright young lady who is incredibly courageous. Dedicated to saving her abused siblings, too. ❤

Understand. I was abused on a scale only a few know… I lived on a rural farm surrounded by a barbed wire, electric fence and gate to keep my mute sister & self inside. I was locked in a closet, drugged, tortured, starved, beaten with an old splintered park bench wood plank turned into a paddle containing sharp carved holes representing each age. After each board broke on my bare skin, they were hung up with dried blood on a wall like trophies. I was hogtied, smothered, ripped hair from scalp, forced child labor, left outside during hot Florida summers where I drank water from a hose, ate dog food & slept on pine needles filled with poison ivy/oak, animal feces smeared on clothes that I had stolen from different schools. I was forced to switched schools until denied school all together. After my monster mother gained back custody, she enrolled me in a homeschool program where I stayed in a locked room for years in complete isolation without any education. CPS was called multiple times but did nothing since my monster mother cleaned up my 6 year younger mute sister & I in church clothes & propped us in chairs next to her so no opportunity to ask for help. Once the neighbor once snuck me out to the Orange County police department (Orlando, FL) who laughed, said “go home” b/c they thought it was a joke. At that moment in life, I began praying every day for either myself or her to die. My exit strategy: A family member secretly gave me an SAT prep book to study in the locked closet, took me to take the test, hand forged my HS transcripts & helped me enroll into a Christian college that helped my transition into the world. I had no idea that I was a legal adult at 18 because I’d been brainwashed to believe my abuser owned me for life. In my mind, I had to do whatever it took to stay in college for as long as possible or I’d be forced back to the “house of hell.” After college graduation, I had a great job, car, apartment, friends, beautiful life and pseudonym (new name & life story) that was given to me by my modeling agency. I began to believe the false life story of my life, completely blacked out my real childhood and let my guard down. My monster mother slowly lured me back in through manipulation, gaslighting, & brainwashing all over again. I was trapped once again and no one could find me for 6 years. My jealous mother made false filings at the courthouse about me (which I didn’t find out until my final escape years later), forced me to take her drugs, hard physical free labor, commit crimes resulting in multiple arrests all for complete power & control over me. After escape, stalked, tracked down, kidnapped & forced to a new location where the abuse escalated until I ended up in a locked basement. My soon to be husband searched endlessly for me, had no idea I was pregnant & never found me since I had no way to contact for help. After my son’s birth, we were separated by my monster mother who always wanted a boy. I could hear my baby crying for me through the ceiling boards of the basement. He could hear me back suffering from injuries. I made a decision to do anything to save us, even if it killed me. I was unknowingly being poisoned for 8 months before my final escape. The doctors had never seen anyone so far gone & survive. I would have given up on life but knew my baby needed me. My final escape lead me to an abuse center which by the Grace of God is rated #2 in the US. The abuse advocates, attorneys, police, courts, & doctors who initially thought I wouldn’t survive, all worked together for free to save us. I received an IFP & placed in the State Victim Protection Program. Surviving to thriving was my ultimate justice.

Poor sweet girl 🥲💔. No matter what she didn’t know she knew she had to get out of there and she became a hero for her and her siblings that day. I hope everyone is doing well and flourishing away from those monsters

Jordan, I can’t thank her enough for her bravery and being a part of this world. She’s a hero & lifesaver. The monsters are truly a mistake on this planet.

Absolutely heartbreaking. Poor girl. Poor kids. Never got to have a childhood, experience school, nothing. All stolen by complete psychopaths for parents.

These two parents should spend the rest of their lives in prison for this. Never to see the light of day again.

So proud of the one that escaped and called the cops. As for the parents they should have been given life without the possibility of parole.

This is just awful. First these poor kids are abused by their parents, then, the system that is supposed to protect and help them fails them miserably!! The Department of Social Services ought to be ashamed of themselves.

“How can heaven be better than this?” Perspective really is everything. Most of us don’t understand how good we have it.

I’m so proud of the kids for overcoming their early life. The odds were stacked against them, but they have survived and thrived! ❤

It always bothers me that the cop doubts her and was gonna take her home until she showed the pix… I mean, how often do children lie about things like this.

What's even more sad is once they escaped hell they got put in foster care houses and some of the houses they were placed in also abused them....

Jordon, you have the heart of a lioness. Never give up be the strong huntress you are!

God bless you, Jordan! You saved your siblings. A true hero

Mother was abused as a child 😢. Doesn't mean that she had the right to abuse her children 😡😡😡. I'm just glad they are better now 😢😢😢

In the many years of news reports of abuse, I'm so fed up of seeing the neighbors commentaries after the fact. Yet not one person did anything to alert authorities 😮 Shame on them as well 😢

The sad thing is that there was $2 million in donations that came in for the children and $400K went to the hospital and other places. Many of these children face food and housing insecurity.

As soon as she says “what’s injuries” with a young child like speech pattern my fricken heart broke and I’m crying

My mother was a monster to me and my father was hardly ever there. I only saw him maybe 12 times before my mom kicked me out at 17. They never told me they were getting a divorce or even after they did. Apparently my dad had woman on the side. Even with all that I find myself lucky compared to those children and adults in that household. It made me cry, but I find myself crying a lot still and I am 66. I always thought something is terribly wrong with me and I believe that to this day. I wish them all a wonderful life from now on.

Reading what happened to these children with their parents then later the abuse by their foster parents is heart breaking. We live in such an evil uncaring world.

"Steal food" is a distinct example of abuse & immediate arrest of the parent caregiver with maximum penalties.

I can’t believe the mother is crying saying she doesn’t want her kids to be sad or depressed when they caused all this. She’s only crying because she got caught this isn’t a one time incident this was years & years of extreme cruelty & starvation. I do think our foster care system needs a total overhaul & more home checks & accountability.

David at the door behind his wife, with his full set of 90's bangs and bob going on there... Freaking Weirdos!!!🥴

Thank you to all the emergency services involved for taking this girl seriously and helping her.

Those children are so strong, I know that they are going to continue to be survivors.

I was mistreated and sexually abused when I was a kid. When I was in my teens I ran away from home. My step mother and my real mother were a piece of shit. All my years I said to myself whenever I had kids, I wasn’t going to be a bad mother. I now have 5 kids, two graduate and the rest are still in school. People have to stop playing victim, even though they were at some point. They need to get up and be a better example. I always tell my kids that failure is not an option.

The look on the "mom's" face as she stares at the police officer was super creepy! And it made me mad how the cop acted like he didn’t have any training in abuse cases while he questioned Jordan.

I only thought I had a miserable childhood. I didn’t realize just how good I had it. These kids deserved nothing but love and happiness and everything good in this world.

Hope these kids get the deliverance and healing to break this ungodly cycles of abuse. That man didnt even apologise he was still gaslighting them

She talks about all of this stuff like she’s reading the newspaper - so matter of fact/little emotion. The horrors she must have witnessed over the years. It really breaks my heart.

I know this story, but I had no idea how incredibly brave Jordan was. I can't even imagine how terrified she must have been, but she did it anyway. This is what a true hero looks like.

Im glad they finally got their money back!! Go fund me raised mountains of cash - the state tried to keep it! They had no right. Luckily they are better off now having legally taken the money back. They deserve it!! 🙏🏻❤️

My youngest brother was so horribly abused at a Alabama boys home. My mom and stepdad just dropped him off there because he was in their way. The horrible abuse he endured at home too.

The officer who is making those eating sounds DRIVES ME CRAZY. WTF

I have severe child trauma too. I feel so bad and proud of those children. The home school groups are under scrutiny like they should be.

Besides the horrifying story of these poor kids, the way the officer is chewing gum while talking to Jordan is annoying! 8:53

There is no punishment harsh enough to please me

Richest country, richest state...and yet no funds to rehabilitate these innocent victims? Dumped into unprofessional foster care where the abuse continued? Compare that to Austria's treatment of the Fritzl kids freed from their dungeon.

These two deserve to be treated in jail the way they treated those innocent children. So disgusting.

This was one of the saddest cases I’ve ever heard. The “dad” looks like a ---- and they are both psychopaths.

Man, when Jordan said what’s medication I kind of just wanted to give her a hug good for her on escaping

I HOPE THESE 2 PEOPLE NEVER GET OUT OF PRISON.

The State failed these kids from the get-go! With everything they went through, then placed in more abusive homes, is beyond reckoning!?? Even to access funds just shows how "CORRUPT" the system is! Damning and shameful beyond belief! 😢

Only 3 of the 13 siblings spoke.. I wonder how the other 10 are doing. There were no updates provided for them. I pray, I pray so loud for their recovery & well being. 🙏 ❤

When you think you can imagine what might be the worst case scenario a child might be living in, think again! The evil some children experience is beyond imagination. These kids deserve the world’s help in order to recover and begin to lead ‘normal’ lives.

I'm so glad these children got saved because of the bravery of their sister but also how heartbreaking that some of them were put in terrible dangerous foster homes thats just horrible. I wish them all a fabulous life from now on.

I don't understand this abuse mentality. How can parents do this!?

I am genuinely in tears at the end of this video, when jordan talked about going to a park for the first time i broke. Well done for getting out of there Jordan!!

Jordan, i hope you are proud of what you did and doing well. You saved them all.

I am a firm believer in not being your neighbor's keeper.... But I often wonder how many houses like this are just around any block. There is a fine line... Up to a certain point. You never know, do you? I was involved peripherally in a situation a bit like this.... I just thought the kids from across the street were being curious. It was when they all started showing up for supper every night that I made the decision to call authorities. Turns out my neighbors were getting money to foster, only they weren't fostering. I will never forget the little boy... It was February and he was cold. All I had was this white, puffy faux designer womens' coat someone had given me. He was thankful for it. That experience tsught me that asking questions was the right thing to do.

Jordan has a spirit and an agency strong enough to push through a thickness of oppression, brainwashing and abuse that would smother most. A true hero. I wish her well and I hope that she uses her future assets to help her brothers and sisters recover from the subsequent abuse at the hands of the State. Maybe they should sue.

It’s so telling they don’t even know how old they are and that all over 18 are literally hostages. 😢

What's even more sad is that some of those kids went into foster care and got s*****ly abused by their foster parents.

I transport 2 small foster children to the parental visitation once a week and I'm ABSOLUTELY disgusted by the parents, foster system AND caseworkers. These children were removed from their crib, covered in feces. Extremely pale because they lived in that crib 24/7. They freak out every time one of the parents try to touch them This is DISGUSTING. I was an abused foster child back in the 70s/80s and I'm ABSOLUTELY MORTIFIED that NOTHING has changed 😡

She communicates like a child in a horror game. "They're being punished because they stole mother's food."

When the two girls speak, it's almost as if they're foreign. At first, when I heard them speak, I was so sad. My stomach was clenching until I realized that every day since they left that horrific situation must be amazing for them. I hope those kids end up living normal happy lives. I don't know if that is possible, but I hope so.

They had the audacity to keep having kids! Then to abuse them!!! why???

It breaks my heart even after they got out of that hellish house and away from their parents, they still endured more abuse the system is so broken. I’m so glad what these evil ppl did didn’t break these kids and didn’t have them become the abuser. They are so strong and an inspiration for so many! I know they will do amazing things. Jordan was so brave to take that first step to get help and freedom!

This cop chewing gum is so gross.

I lived in that area at the time this happened...this was so unbelieveable that those poor children (and adult children) had to live like that. I hope those parents never get paroled. They dont deserve to live a normal life...their kids do!

That sweet child is a brave little lady.

I don’t like the way the cop is questioning her, such as “why didn’t you guys just leave?” and smacking his gum.

Most Southern Californians will never forget this case. Especially if you were a homeschooling family. Those horrific "parents" put a bullseye on good parents backs'. Then the politicians took it as an opportunity to write even more draconian laws than we already had. Thankfully there was a unified voice that said "NO", "We will not be punished for the actions of others!!". Those Bills were quickly struck down. Then to find out that the children were treated even worse by the State! How dare they think they could legislate more control over us when they couldn't control their own employees! It's so wonderful to hear the older children are doing so much better. But we never hear about the younger children & how they're doing. I 🙏 they're doing well too & finally know what parental love is supposed to look & feel like.

My heart was saddened and some what upset at first,but then God shined through showing he loves his children. He is faithful to watch over them.

WHERE are the younger children NOW? They said they went to abusive and crime ridden foster homes...but where are they NOW? : ( And oh my gosh...the strength and resiliency of these children....bless them so big!!

That gum the officer is chewing while talking to the girl in the car, that disgusting sound is driving me crazy.

That cop and his gum chewing and 20 fucking questions was PISSING ME OFF SO BAD. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

I just can't wrap my head around how parents could treat children this way. Also, even worse, is the welfare department. My mother fostered for years, and the children were treated like her own. They were loved and taken care of. So I have A LOT of trouble with the abusive homes kids have been placed in. So good to see the end with beautiful Jordan. I pray that she will be happy and whole. And Jennifer. She shows not hatred or animosity toward her parents. These girls are so special.

“They almost changed me….” This struck me, as someone who survived brainwashing and spent years undoing its effects. Families can and do change their kids through years of brainwashing. Things that happen in your home become NORMAL to you and often it’s only years or decades later when you’ve managed to get away from it, that you realize the ways in which it changed you. “I’m strong, and I’m shooting through life like a rocket.”

This is why I am against home schooling of children without disabilities. No safety net, no way out. An private schools are unregulated.

Wow these kids deserves the world the sky and more. You guys are so strong that i will be shy to complaine from now on !

I pray these children are all safe now and living their best lives as they deserve nothing but true love, joy and happiness xx

The very very sad part of this story is presently some of the kids are homeless & others are in horrible foster homes. They are all separated & many of the siblings were never able to see each other again. What happened to all of the money raised for the kids??? Nobody seems to know!!🥺

The cop should get a award for his kindness and I hope all the young kids can make a good life for themselves and be strong and be successful in life.

Wow. What amazing children..and I can’t believe the mother in her last statement, “I want our kids to know we’ll be ok”..STILL only thinking about themselves!! Not at all about what those children went through,or had to go through in the future..some ppl are sick. It’s like couples with huge families always have problems with SA, torture, keeping kids tied up,or restrained in some form,and of course all the mental and emotional abuse like buying brand new nice things for your kids, and never letting them have it. That, is disgusting. This was definitely a horror story,but I’m glad it has a better ending than most..praying for those kiddos! ❤❤❤❤

This is so sad. God bless the young girl’s bravery and courage to go into a world that was foreign to her in order to save her brothers and sisters.
