Dollar General workers noticed child’s strange behavior and called cops… who unearthed sordid sex allegation in house of horrors where 16 children lived ‘like feral animals’
Employees at a Dollar General store in Ohio contacted police after noticing unusual behaviour in a child, a call that led investigators to what has been described as a "house of horrors" where 16 children were allegedly living in squalid, neglectful conditions likened to "feral animals". The case has since expanded to include a serious sexual abuse allegation, prompting new criminal charges against those responsible for the household.
The family at the centre of the case has been identified by the surname Siders, though the full details of the charges and the specific allegations have not been fully outlined in available reporting. The matter appears to remain under active investigation, with authorities examining both the living conditions endured by the children and the separate sexual abuse claim uncovered during the inquiry.
