In this week's episode, Kendra takes a look at the Turpin Family tragedy, one that shocked the world when a brave 17 year-old Jordan Turpin escaped from her home in California to call 911. What was uncovered after that call was straight out of a horror movie. 13 children, some of them well into adulthood, being held captive in literal shackles by their own parents and subjected to some of the worst abuse you can imagine.  We will examine the family background and what led to this disturbing discovery in 2018.  __________
