Doesn't that wedding scene make you sick knowing their kids are starving.
That is exactly what i was thinking … smh
Makes my blood boil. Child abusers don't deserve air.
Also the way he kisses her lol 🤢
It does but it wasn't the wedding scene that caused the Turpin childrens neglect and abuse. It was their parents
@Wanita Delaney peace Wanita
The dads super creepy bowl haircut should have been enough to investigate this disgusting couple.
those haircut is a big sign!
Bingo!
😅
The parents hair cuts and the fact they look like they on heroin
😂
1:45 that reaction from Jordan just melts your heart. She smiles remembering that family outing as a rare, happy event, where they all got to be out of that house together... But then sees her sister's reaction and looks at the photo again confused and searching for what she has missed, guilty even that she smiled while her sister cried. It's one of THE most real reactions I've watched in any video... Especially in the days where everything online is so staged for maximum views or self promotion. For her, those cameras weren't there at that moment.
That’s killed me horrible
for real, you described that moment perfectly
most real thing I`ve ever seen and I`m 56yrs old 😢
😭😭😭😭
*Good foster and adoptive parents are desperately needed. If you are pro-life, think about this. Just ask some questions "maybe".*
The way Jordan’s face dropped when she saw her sisters tears burst out, just shows she has so much compassion and empathy, many times with stories like these kids turn out to be psychos and unfeeling towards others, as long as it’s not them, but these girls thankfully grew to be the opposite to that, they all watch out and care for one another, it’s something so special.
I’m thrilled that they are now free, but I feel so sorry that it took so long for them to be able to escape. Thank God Jordan managed, she so smart and her hope for help for her siblings is what encouraged her to get hold of police.
I can’t believe parents would do this AND get away with it for so long, surely people would find it odd, that they’re never seen, or find it odd that other family members don’t help out with the kids
Really, they were all they had. They parented each other as best they could.
Very deep analysis.
The fact that this is most likely happening to someone right now is terrifying
Woooww this comment scary
Not likely, it is happening. If you become a teacher you hear it all. I had a student who was caged and neglected as a 3 and 4 year old. I have kids Age 7 tell me , please don't let my dad pick me up, he's drunk. Countless stories of just the things kids told me or that I knew. There's so much more.
@@gbrainy Surely you've done something about it in these instances?
Yes it does. All of the worst kinds of abuse happens all the time.
It happened for 3 more years after the kids were “rescued.” 6 of them went to a foster home where they were s******* and physically abused. Who knows if they’ll ever find peace.
Jordan is the most empathetic person I have ever seen. Did you see her face when she realized Jennifer was about to cry while looking at the photo?
That made me cry
Yes! Omg that absolutely killed me!
Her face changed in a blink of an eye. That's just so, so sad...
Yes you can tell shes her siblings backbone. She’s an amazing young woman
It looked like the sister on the right smiled a bit at the photo, then saw her sister's face and immediately changed. Kinda a curious moment. They've been through a lot.
What's so sad is that Jordan doesn't say in this interview that Child Protective Services DID fail her and her family. She went through more hell before this interview even took place.
of course. CPS once again failing kids. just like Gabriel Fernandez. why do they exist when they fail kids over and over again?
i don’t think it happened to Jordan. It happened to all the siblings that were minors
@@tionnanicole95 Jordan wasn’t treated well afterwards either. There were times where after she got a job would ask her coworkers for money just so she could eat.
Why do I always hear an alarming number of stories where the CPS have failed to do their job? - like it’s people’s lives and livelihoods at stake, like c’mon🙄
@@YG-rr6zv the repeated failures of CPS causes ppl to hesitate in calling CPS to rescue kids; CPS has a chance to be worse for the kids.
The fact that the parents ate all the food they wanted while the kids were forced to eat bread with peanut butter, ice, ketchup and mustard, and even LEAVES is so heartbreaking
their non verbal language is impressive, feels like they are having an entire conversation while staring at each other, that must’ve be the only way they would had to communicate in a safe way back then.
Was thinking the same thing while they're were looking at the wedding photo
I was thinking the same thing. She knew immediately something was wrong with her sister. You can see her expression change from what are you thinking to oh no you’re not okay.
They are very loving, incredible since they were never shown love.
wow this is effed up in so many levels.
@@jaythojj1365 ??
That look Jordan gives her sister when she sees her about to cry is one of the most moving and real moments I've ever seen. Bless these brave women! They are so strong I don't know how they survived that.
😭😭😭😭 Right!!??!! 😭😭😭
i believe they survived as team work (Jordan worded it that way) they support and show each other love even if their parents never did. Naturally kids are born with it and they become healthy loving persons even with abusive parents. The strength and spirit of them as siblings are extraordinary 😭
Right? I was tearing up when I saw that.
so real...... wow......
She’s really strong!
1:46 broke my heart. That is the definition of empathy and love. She was unaware of her sister's feelings until she looked up and at once her face dropped and she was in the trenches with her. She appears to have such a caring and loving soul and I pray for the best for her and all of her siblings. I pray that the cycle ends with them and they get the help and care that they deserve after years in hell. Bless them.
It's clear that even after 5 or 6 years Jordan still looks to her sister for what to do. She wasn't sure how to react to the photos, as she remembered it as a happy memory. Her double take at Jennifer was her confusion as to what really happened that day. I hope there was some kind of professional there to help her process this seemingly new information. She looked all kinds of freaked out about it and just needed to comfort Jennifer as her way of dealing with it. So sad.
@@tehauctioneer Head cannon.
1:45 When Jordan saw her sister crying, you could see in her eyes how loving she is. Jordan is a beautiful angel.
When Jordan looked up and saw that her sister was gonna cry, her expression switched to compassion so fast, then gave her a hug. These girls bond is so deep and special.
Jordan*
yeah it touched my heart right a way 😥🥰😌
I think when you have been through so much together that bond is necessary. When you have been to hell and back with somebody that bond is unbreakable.
true:(.
Yes. I noticed that. My heart just went to her.
We're all noticing the same thing, Jordan's expression of empathy towards her sister. If only we all had empathy like hers. Despite everything, there's certainly a light within this woman.
Absolutely
We all can tap into empathy
@@tusharmuraliold Not just a female quality.
@@MiaRedmond well, some people really can't. most of us can though and we should practice it more often than we do, I agree with that.
@@tusharmuraliold I'm saying it isn't an exclusive female instinct. Many females are not loving. Many males are warm and loving. And vice versa.
I’m in awe of Jordan. She’s so strong and resilient in the face of pure horror.
Supporting her sister while she is also going through the same trauma.
Ive watched this video so many times. at 1:47 that instant switch of compassion Jordan has watching her sister cry is so profound and beautiful. God bless them and their siblings.
Jordan’s face when she saw how her sister was reacting to the photos is heartbreaking. These women must go through so many damn conflicting emotions...
I noticed that too. Once Jordan looked and saw how upset her sister was 😢. I’m not sure if Jordan really understands as much as Jennifer and that is so upsetting. Truly hope all these children succeed and have an amazing life. This is far from over
Jordan was born in the right order to become the strong one, the eldest always gets it the worst and saw it all and the youngest were in physical distress. The parents got life, the state players deserve the same. Tragic
Its so crazy how the oldest in the photo was in her mid/late twenties. So heartbreaking
I actually welled up at that part
That part broke my heart. She was so upset to see her sister upset.
1:45 The shock on Jordan's face realizing her sister didn't view this as one of her few happy memories. Jordan was just young enough to be fooled by the mask as well.
No she explained it, they were just so happy to be out.
@@k_t530 Right, and that doesn't contradict what Tim said.
Yup this moment broke me
Heartbreaking
this part literally broke my heart.
That moment at 1:47 you can see the love and care for her sister. Heartbreaking
1:47 That full shift seeing her sister's pain.. Part of what drove her to escape and get help to begin with. These poor girls and all their siblings deserve so much more than the cruelty they've been subjected to.
Even though these girls have a limited vocabulary they are very eloquent and clear in what they are saying.
Please could you explain what has caused these girls to have limited vocabulary
@@Saifullah.Q lack of education
@@Saifullah.Q being sheltered from the world and media so many years
@@Saifullah.Q they were given no chances to learn and interact with the world, as well as no education
Jordan from what I saw is very articulate.
Jordan after looking at the picture at1:38 mark, she is half smiling, and expecting similar reaction from her sister. When she realizes, her sister is about to cry, her expression changes to confusion, and empathy.
That sudden change of her expression was sheer innocence. It stuck in my mind. I felt so bad for these sisters.
Can u tell me what was the reason that her parents did to them or they just wanted to do
@@jiminiee296 I’ve watched all the previous parts and so far there doesn’t seem to be much of a reason other than they are lunatics. Let’s see part 5…
foreal
I’m so proud of them they are such strong and beautiful women now I can’t believe they had the courage to survive this long... they are truly amazing people. ❤️
I think Jordan saw that picture and it was a happy moment for her. Her sister didn’t see it that way at all
That look Jordan gives her sister at 1:51 shows just how pure and caring she is about her siblings. What a wonderful person who had to endure such utter horror.
When Jordan's face lights up its brighter then the sun. When the sadness and terror crosses her face its heartbreaking. Love to these incredible children/young adults
To everyone saying “I hope they’re doing amazing” on this video and all of the other parts of the story… THEY ARE NOT DOING OKAY. They were separated into different foster families after being taken away from their parents and were abused there. They do not have access to most of the money that was raised for them after the first news of this broke. The foster care system is broken and we need to spread the word and find anyone to contact who can change this. I’m going to try to find the right government officials to contact and I encourage everyone else to do the same.
I completely agree. Absolutely beautiful and they radiate so much love 💕
O wow. I had no idea.
Como posso ajudar ? Eu quero
Muito fazer algo por eles
Yes 😫
Jesus I believe you and it makes me really sad. I want to help..
The trauma that Jennifer must have from nearly three decades of being abused and abandoned while watching her beloved siblings go through the exact same thing, helpless and terrified... I can't even imagine it. She is unbelievably brave.
I wonder if since she was an adult it would be considered kidnapping? Could someone send me the link of all charges the fucking monsters got?
@@nomadicskies588 I believe it might be considered abduction, at that a point, instead of kidnapping (but I’m also completely talking out my 🍑).
@@MarnieGolde7 lol. That sounds correct but I’m still not sure. Thanks though
False imprisonment, I think the charge would be.
The way Jennifer’s face breaks at the picture and then she just pushes it down, her face goes blank, then she looks up and smiles. A person not as strong would have not made it.
That moment @1:45 mark...man. That was powerful. Their silence spoke a 1000 words. The connection with one another and the ability to immediately feel each others emotions so quickly through 'look' alone. I almost instantly felt as if I saw a glimpse into how they must have done, just this exact thing, when having to stay silent at home. That moment just hits hard with every feeling. Much respect to all the Turpin siblings, may you find nothing but health and happiness in your futures!
Her reaction to realizing what that wedding picture was doing to her sister was incredible.
It's so terrible that no one ever took the time to say anything. Their teachers and neighbors also failed them. It makes me so angry and sad for the kids
They didn't have teachers.
@@nellid.3264 they did at one point
Maybe the neighbors didn't know they had kids or that many at least. But yeah i agree most people are caught up in their own lives and too busy with them selves.
The oldest was the only one who went to school and they pulled her out after 3rd grade. I'm not saying those teachers she had didnt drop the ball but I do wonder how bad it was when there was only a couple children in the house. Or if the abuse didn't escalate to 100% obvious until there was more children.
@@needabettername1559 the first kid went through like 4 grades and that was it….
It’s so messed up the mother would buy CLEAN TOYS AND GAMES and they couldn’t even play with them or wear them. That’s like a whole new level of messed up.
I know right? Why is nobody talking about that
@@cabrics1985 exactly!!
I noticed straight away! :(
Seriously that fact is so shocking and gross
Was the mother abused as a child?
How they looked at each other at 1:53 I burst into tears I could see the amount of love and concern the younger sister had for the younger
This just touched my soul so deeply. Tears rolling down my face trying to imagine the hell these children went through. All my love and prayers go out to them. They are amazing, beautiful and pure. I hope their future is filled with happiness and that they can get over the pain.
can we talk about how good the quality on the barbie camera is that it's being used as actual evidence. thank u barbie!!!!!
For real I was shocked when they said it came from a barbie
Something is off about this
@@Photosynthesislove it’s the Thank u Barbie part
Amazing to put a camera in a barbie and the girl smart enough to use it.
@@disappointment3090 I understand but something is still very off on this case
I’ve just read that some of the siblings have filed a lawsuit after they were released into the custody of another abusive foster family. Several of the immediately ended up homeless, saying the social services failed them. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Do you have source of this?
Source bro?
Unfortunately why i don't trust the system it's absolutely disgusting, don't trust anybody in this fucked up world.
Source????

it's crazy seeing that photo of them at Disneyland...
heartbreaking story.. the part about the kids trying to teach each other how to talk and to be human was so sad, it almost made me cry
I couldn’t imagine being that Elvis impersonator and finding out now what was really happening behind closed doors.
Exactly
You probably walk pass/ meet children all the time that this is happening to.
@@cherijames9895 true
amanda jones,the elive impersonator in up on u tube giving a interview,am i dont know much abut computers but if u have the know how tosrech 4 it u find it.
There's actually an interview of him speaking about that very day
When Jordan turned to Jennifer, after looking at a “better” memory, with a small smile, realized it wasn’t, and then looked back down, studied it with different eyes, and then back to her sister…. Heartbreaking.
So much strength in these two girls.
Yes this really touched me. Jordan has very deep empathy.
I was going to comment something similar to this. Jordan’s face when she looks over to Jennifer says a lot. It’s like she has this moment of realization about that memory.
i watched that a couple times both of their faces say so much
01:46
I keep repeating it because it's so profound how Jordan is smiling a little but seeing her sisters expression she quickly assesses the picture and her sisters feeling through her expression. They may not be as expressive in the spoken language but their expressions and body language speaks volume
To all the Turpin children, YOU ARE SURVIVORS, you survived much more ,then what others could even handle, ...I am so deeply sorry for what you had endured, NO CHILD SHOULD EVER HAD TO GO THRU WHAT YOU DID ,I honestly hope that each one of you, are doing ok, and that you are surround with people who love you ,IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, YOU DIDN'T TO ANYTHING TO DESERVE ANY OF IT, ...YOU ARE PRECIOUS NEVER FORGET
You can tell the genuine bond they share through this horrendous experience, true beauty and innocence.
1:45. The way Jordan immediately senses her sisters pain and reacts with empathy. Just heartbreaking.
Yeah, that's crazy!
yeah 🥺
They have a bond like no other siblings do. They’ve been through hell together. I’m so glad she found the courage to escape and use that phone. Who knows how much longer they would of been locked away. I’m sure one of them would of died. I honestly don’t know if I would be able to go through what they went through and not try to kill myself.
💔💔💔💔
That moment was heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time
The way Jordan looks at her sister, she genuinely loves her. They are beautiful young women. I pray everything gets better for all of them after this interview.
It's amazing that they had such a bond and were able to make each other feel loved.
😢yes
Jordan is now pregnant. It was announced on Facebook.
What is it to be human😢
The second she sees her crying after they look at the Las Vegas picture . 💔 Jordan’s face immediately changed from sickened to saddened for Jennifer.
The raw emotion, the absolute horror of living with those monsters. The whole story just has me devastated
Wrong interpretation of holy book Bible can make anyone monster.
The girls are so pretty now, what they did to save their siblings is truly incredible. I wish them nothing but happiness for the rest of their lives.
The sad thing based on how huge the US is and how many rural areas it has, there are probably more families like this.
And for many generations too 😢
@@edunlap6594 Oh no doubt indeed! I’m Dutch and my country The Netherlands wich is litterally 10x smaller than California alone and 237x smaller than the US, and even we had a similar situation not long ago. It was even on the news in America i saw it when i was there on holiday. Here is the footage th-cam.com/video/3-pHQPWt0Sw/w-d-xo.html
@@Milo19970 holy crap man I just watched the video. Changed my way of thinking, I appreciate my parents much more than a did before seeing all these videos
Yes exactly! America is so huge and there so many abandoned and forgotten areas
These parents got away with it for 29 years before they got caught. It really makes you wonder how many more kids are going through this right now somewhere else.
The way Jordan looked at her sister as she began to cry when looking at the wedding picture absolutely broke me!
😞 yes
omg same here! i can't stop crying
so heartbreaking !!
I had to rewatch that part. At first Jordan smiled (probably not instantly processing that experience, or maybe smiling because she was reminded one of the few times she felt happy, IDK) but then she saw Jennifer’s face and that instant empathy Jordan displayed for her sister was amazing to witness. So raw and true. Human connection. Wow! I hope this family can more forward together and live the rest of their lives fulfilled.
Me too, I burst out crying. What these kids went through is too much.
What a powerful look of pure concern and love Jordan gave her sister when the saw the “wedding” pictures. Wow the strength and courage of these remarkable heroes!
The empathy of the second oldest daughter the way she constantly checking the expressions of the people around her is heart breaking I understand her 💔
It's a pretty clear pattern I've noticed. "Home schooling" your children is often a way parents hide abuse. There needs to be checks and balances in place!
There are some bad ones, yes, but there are terrible schools, too
I agree. Home schooling deprives your child from socializing
@@camillabrandao_ads if by socializing you mean spending time with other kids that don’t know how to socialize and teachers that just want to indoctrinate, then sure. I went to a mainstream school and both the teachers and kids were dumb as dirt
@@camillabrandao_ads but the public schools system isn't any better with bullying, substance abuse, negligent teachers etc. I believe monitoring parents that homeschool their kids would be the way to go. Like random home interviews with just the child/ children
That is not accurate
Jordan’s emotional intelligence is actually astounding. I don’t know about the other kids, but it seems that Jordan was very quick on her feet and clever for what she went through. She saved everyone.
Even reading her sister’s emotions and knowing how to comfort like a mother. She had motherly instincts.
My heart breaks for all of them :(
She's like a walking angel isn't she.
It’s not a “motherly instinct” just because she’s a woman.
It’s called something anyone with empathy would do, especially with their lifestyle and closeness to each other.
@@sarcasticallyrearranged your opinion
My heart breaks for these people. I can't understand how anyone could hurt their children. Children should be cherished and protected. I hope they find happiness. They deserve it.
Actually, trauma can cause a heightened sense for empathy ... especially for those suffering with you. It is definitely not the ideal way to develop one's sense of empathy .... but trauma is not something one chooses either.
A family of 15 but happiness evaded them because of their own parents. I could never imagine myself going through that even for a day but these brave siblings survived for years. So happy and glad to see them smile now.
I just wish the siblings all the happiness, health and especially come out of the trauma.
1:45 The mix of emotions here are unbelievable. They both originally look happy when looking at the picture, and the brief glimpse of happiness turns to pain. You can see Jordan almost doesn’t know how to react. She does a half smile until she notices her sister is upset. Her expression changes so quickly. Something about that moment is so powerful and interesting.
Jennifer smile and laugh to hide her real emotions. She's a strong brave women.
Woman*
*woman
She really is. Bless her
Jennifer doesn't hide her emotions. She is an amazing person and is the most genuine person in the world
I can't get over how everyone failed them. Their teachers at school, the neighbours around them, even the credit card company that was owed money by their mother. Unbelievable! Why did no one think to check in on the family.
Called The Bystander Effect, similar how you watch an old person fall on the ground, the first thing in your mind is watch if anyone will help them then conclude that someone will help them eventually. It’s a very common thing in developed societies.
Idk, it's not surprising. Why would you assume any of these people would have checked? Children born to some lone couple in a new town are nothing but files in the hospital waiting to be added up to realize they have kids. THere's no reason to check or add those files up. If they just keep to themselves, etc...Nobody is personally invested and these children never had deep relationships that would have stopped to look out for them. The children in public schools would likely have no idea how wrong it is and groomed t obelieve whatever bullshit...Kids want to believe even their abusive parents that their guts is warning them about...
I was in a somewhat parallel situation, not nearly as horrific...Grooming/brainwashing just worked better for my abuser, I was able to develop a pretty good physical resilience to where not being able to get the reaction from me desired, they gave up. Don't underestimate what mental domination can do to someone, especially during development...Physical pain sorta has this limit..And after a while, it loses any edge altogether thanks to how you have to frame your reality...Mental pain, there is no way to cope...You just bury more and more layers of different kinds...It can touch you in so much more private places...sensitive places that aren't attenuated... Years later, I still find myself wondering if it really happened or if it was my fault, etc, but when I start to iterate over what happened I'm reminded man that was pretty f'd up. Anyways, in my case, I had a good parent but they could not understand why their partner was so vicious all the time towards them. They moved to their shop and worked to support us but never saw them. So my good parent literally only found out after like 20 years some of the things that happened. They always thought it was only at them and thought it was undirected rage not planned malice. In general, my bad parent wouldn't have been caught if she didn't receive a TBI which caused her to lose stability.
Parents honestly scare me because of what they can get away with because society even expects them to be responsible for their child... But that's double edged because now it doesn't look weird for them to control that kid in the guise of love. If they abuse that, that child is fucking doomed. We're fortunate it takes psychopathy and isn't something someone would just do for kicks. What my grandma did and allowed to happen to my down syndrome uncle for 40yr would make you turn pale, even compared to the house of horror. So, I think I'll just end the line here anyways with kids.
@@GRAYgoose124 I’m so sorry you went through that. Thank you for sharing your story
@@shirinnayebi6086 Thank you
@@GRAYgoose124 what you say pretty much hits the nail on the head. And, I agree no one should judge how anyone handles things in life that no child or adult should have to suffer through. And no one should judge what we have to do to survive through any trauma. I think your really brave to share your story here to help and educate others. And I truly hope that you have genuine caring people in your life now. 😊
The love between the 2 sisters is heartbreakingly beautiful.....GOD BLESS THE CHILDREN...
If you see something, SAY SOMETHING!
This is courage. The fact they have the will power to keep living after everything they’ve been through. Nothing but blessings to these brave women.
Yes, & Jennifer is a doll on her social media! She posted pics n vids of their invite to a Mar 2022 Justin Bieber show, she knows how to dress for the occasion, she's quite the rocker chic! Lol 0:02
This is how you know the parents are not just negligent or struggling, they are actual abusers who thrive off abuse. They bought all this expensive clothing and their own kids lived in filth even though nobody else was going to use the clothing. That takes actual effort and energy to deliberately deprive the kids of things They need when it’s literally sitting in the closet.
Agreed. I also would not give them clemency for psych issues in their case. This man and woman ran their own prison the way cult leaders do. So many of the rules they enforced involved protecting themselves from accountability. In other words, they KNEW. They chose. They were in joint collusion, giving themselves permission to every decision in neglecting and abusing their children. They knew better. Half of what they did was to hide the ugly truth from the rest of the world.

Because I dont understand what are the chances they are both that fked up and happen to actually find each other and become soul mates. I need answers this is beyond my comprehension.
This is how my mother and her siblings were raised, maybe less filth because the kids had to clean the house, but my grandparents were rich and the kids got basic food and clothing. Then some abuse and filthy acts committed by the parents and by each other at the command of the parents.
@@sunlitrain why they did this to their own children?? Were they getting some kind of pleasure doing this?? I mean is it any kind of psychological disorder the parents have?
Im so glad that the sisters have each other. Jordan's hugging her sister as she teared up really hit home how badly they were treated and how the only thing they had was each other.
Currently watching this and sobbing uncontrollably. i remember hearing about this in 2018 and it breaks my heart for the kids.. i’m glad they were able to get out. no kids should ever have to deal with this EVER.
Jordan is gorgeous inside and out. She’s so empathetic and caring.
She really is! A gorgeous and caring soul.
She's lovely-I hope she flourishes, its tragic what California continues to fail them
She has an inner strength. God only knows how she developed it living under those circumstances. It probably saved all of them.
yes she definitely is she is entitled to her truth
Yes, that moment they were looking at the Vegas wedding photo and Jordan begins to smile, but looks over at her sister and sees her crying and you could almost literally see her heart jump out towards her sister as concern just blankets Jordan's face.
1:48 Jordan's reaction when she sees here sister's reaction is incredibly heartbreaking. You can tell they love and care for each other.
You suck at timestamps
There Is some real innocense In them both
@@susanna8612 yeah they seem so genuine it's so sad
Yep at 1:50. The sister on the right smiles a bit until she sees the horror and sadness in her sisters face. She instantly becomes concerned for her sister more than herself.
That's exactly what I thought. You can tell that they have been sharing so much pain together that it's almost like they can feel what the other feel instantly.
No amount of words can bring back the lost moments.
1:35 gave me chills replaying their reactions to eachother. Thank God they have one another.
“This was a mask, we werent a happy family” This broke my heart. They faked their happiness.
hey lol
@@localmilfchaser6938 lmao what
At 3:06 Jordan says "why couldnt we just be that family all the time"? Because when you're born another number you quickly realize More is Never Better!

1:47. The way Jordan's expression changes when she looks at Jennifer. My heart SHATTERED.
It’s like to Jordan is was one of the happier memories and she smiled a bit looking at it but the little bit of happiness immediately washed away into concern when she realised Jennifer was about to cry looking at the picture.
I ran to the comments to talk about this! That moment broke me!
My gosh, what a heartbreaking but sweet moment. Complete empathy for her sister.
Exactly!!!
Mine too. Broke me completely
1:48 really did it for me
It's slightly noticable there's flashbacks, followed by a exhange of eye contact and one can see how Jordan get's noticable concerned for her sister. Her sister trying to laugh it off, but emotions pressing on making it hard. And then a hug for comfort...
Heartbreaking, I really hope they get the proper help needed.
The fact that they would taunt them by not letting them have these clothes, food, and toys they weren’t allowed to touch is absolutely devastating. I’m so glad that these women are finally out living life they deserve to live.
Judging from the comments, we all saw it. You can tell that Jordan looked at the photo and remembered how being out of the house felt, she remembered the joy. But her sister remembered something different, the pain and loss from suffering from such an abnormal childhood. Moments like these were emotional robberies to her and her face says it all when she looks at the photo. Jordan goes from almost smiling to empathetic shock when she sees Jennifer, she then looks again at the photo in a new light, then back to her sister knowing what she felt. It’s such a powerful moment of empathy, I even had to come back to this video to watch it again several hours later, and leave this comment. Such amazing people that went through such terrible things, and still continue to experience terrible things to this day unfortunately. None of them deserved any of this, it’s so heartbreaking.
Well, thanks for that comment!
perfectly worded..
Nicely put 👍🏼
“ Prison isn’t kind to people that hurt children”. True Detective
I hope every prisoner in the state sees this program.
@@allthingsharbor Same. I'd pay to see what the inmates would do to them.
David and Louise Turpin are probably in protective custody with fellow child abusers/murderers.
5 years in prison. They really don't care usually.
Let's hope the parents end up frail and vulnerable when they get are old. And they get beaten and abused in some squalid nursing home.
The look on Jordan face whn her older sister started to cry was so sincere & heartfelt
Omg the face that Jordan make when she saw her sister crying I feel so sorry for them I hope they are doing well and happy God bless them always 🙏
The way Jordan looked at her sister literally broke my heart into a million pieces. This is absolutely horrible. I hope they find peace and thrive. They are meant for the best in the world. Sending all the good vibes to you two

Wonderful sisters
Jordan is so strong looking at the picture and then looks at Jennifer’s reaction and realizes she’s crying then looks back at the picture trying to see if it makes her feel the way Jennifer feels is so sweet Jordan trying to understand the emotions
It’s so sad because she didn’t share the same memory of that day. Jordan thought it was the greatest day ever. They way she was shocked when she saw her sister was crying, had me in tears. The way she hugged her sister with the warmest hug ever made me cry
I think that's less of a testament to their bind and more of a testament to them not being able to fully identity what their emotions are/being emotionally stunted due to all the abuse they went through
Wut?
Jordan looks like a curious person. In the vidéo her behavior to me is kind of like a child that is marveled by what is going on around them. Her sense of wonderment to me might be the reason behind her smile when she saw the picture because that is one of the few times they got to be out and dress nice.
Jennifer on the other hand looked uncomfortable in the video. Seeing that photo probably evoked a sense of the discomfort she had been through. Seeing how emaciated she looked in the picture she could only cry cuz she realizes how abused she was and how much it showed.
@@approximate1665 they were different ages and pro ably experienced it differently
Beautiful girls inside and out. I’m happy they can break this horrific cycle. They are smart and I wish them and all their siblings health and happiness.
This truly makes me see the importance of having extended family play an integral part in children's lives. My nosey family sniffed out (it seems like) everything.
What’s sad to me is the age regression in Jennifer. The way she speaks, her reactions, are not up to par with a normal 31 year old. It’s so, so sad. I’m so happy for these two and there is a special place in hell for their parents.
even she looks so young for 31 year
i at first thought her to be 21 or something
their bravery is something i will always remember .
@@212letliveonearth but 31 year olds do look young tho.. they are young
I think she sounds just fine. It's be hard to tell for sure. But I do know how under-exposed they've been. They have time now to learn though. Now it is their time. They'll be just fine.
@@melarie205 She looks young, and 31 is still pretty young, but her whole childhood was taken from her regardless. Physically, she's an adult, but mentally she's still running behind. And that's not supposed to be an insult, but I still think it's depressing. Most of her life was basically just torture.
@@melarie205 very true
My heart is actually breaking watching this. These two women are incredible.
I agree. I pray the system corrects itself and give these women and their siblings better support. The nation treats Afghanistan refugees better than its own citizens.
1:37 - Seeing how upset Jordan was at seeing her sister upset, shows how much the siblings love each other. I'm glad they at least had each other. My mom didn't have anyone in foster care.
Oh wow the reaction from the girls when they showed them the wedding family photos. So many emotions went across their faces at once. 😢💔
Their reactions when they see the wedding picture is so heartbreaking. Jennifer is straight up crying while Jordan looks so…distraught. I’m so thankful these women are in a better place now
Why did they cry when they saw the wedding picture? Could you explain to me ?
@@aizai8984I don't want to play amateur psychologist, but I'll explain it to you for him/her. Jennifer burst into tears when she looked at the picture because she knew and knows that picture wasn't an accurate representation of what her life was like with her parents. Jordan on the other hand, seemed happy at first as the moment that's documented in that picture was probably one of the very few good moments of her childhood, but when she saw her sister crying, her smile immediately disappeared, and she empathized with her sister, knowing herself that the picture was a bad representation.
@@zeinmets3550 ah now I get it, thanks
No they’re not in a better place now , some of the siblings ended up with a foster parent that are abusive , again . Now they’re homeless . Watch it till the end
That was in 2006 when she was probably 3-4 year old
The fact that fast food and frozen food were considered “the good stuff” is truly horrifying.
EDIT: excuse my previous phrasing, Jordan’s comment about how fast/frozen food were the good stuff was horrifying in the context of how malnourished they were. They were living off of what was essentially scraps and eating fast/frozen food was the highest quality food their “parents” were rarely providing them.
well its much much better than ketchup and ice
My cousin sister would eat ice and butter from the fridge when left alone and when I told my dad, he was concerned she was left alone without food. Turns out, she hated the fast food they left for her so much that she'd rather eat ice or butter. It kept making her ill. So you're right. The standards are totally skewed.
That’s the good stuff for me lol and I’m not starved
@@redlight7070 more or so eluding to the fact that they were so starved, to the point where they’d sometimes eat grass, and fast/frozen food was what they saw their parents eat. For me, I’d consider the real good stuff like restaurant food or home cooked food. For most of us, we can easily drive out to McDonald’s or Taco Bell for something, but they obviously weren’t even allowed out of the house beyond special occasions
That's the fact that horrifies you? Ok.
I want to point something out. The way Jordan reacts realizing her sister is hurt at about the 1:47 mark is genuine affection you can tell its hurting her to see her sister cry by the face she makes and it's so pure and innocent. You can tell all these kids had was each other.
Jordan is such a beautiful, brave person. Even all that shes been through she still has a bright soul and joyful spirit.
You can see how Jordan's face drops when she looks at her sister. Hope them and their siblings are doing great.
The parents are disgusting!, Having all them toys and new clothes and not using them! The freezer was full! They were blessed with 13 BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN AND FAILED EVERY ONE OF THEM!
They deserve to have life in prison
and exactly where were their grandparents that nobody seems to mention.....
they're just as guilty!
cris no they deserve to live & be treated exactly how they treated starved & beat those poor children
@@Summer09824 yes that’s even better! 😡
@@SUGAR_XYLER you can't say that the grandparents are guilty of anything. They could be dead.
you can see the pain in their eyes. heartbreaking. absolutely heartbreaking.
These women are incredible and brave. Bless them and the police investigators. They are incredibly articulate for people who were so horrifically deprived and mistreated. May they lead the rest of their lives in happiness and peace.
1:46 man that look the sisters exchanged broke me. I can't even begin to imagine how sick you have to be to abuse anyone, let alone helpless children, the same ones you're supposed to be protecting and nurturing. Disgusting.
I just hope that all of them are happy and safe now, that they never have to go through abuse of any kind again.
Not just children, they chained up their 29 year old son and kept him there
I played that back like 10x.
lol too fake
@@Caracal-mb2ji bro you’re hunting the comments trying to make people mad 😂
And yet the president of the United States is being accused of sexually abusing his own daughter in the shower....per her released diary ! One sick son of a gun !
Those “THING” T-shirts were very fitting- they were treated as things not people.
twilt: True this! A child should never be born a "woops did it again" either. Nor be used as religious, social, or entrapment Pawns/Thing two is such a sad label.
why wouldn't they show or talk about the other siblings?
@@Tae._.yeji108 In the USA victims are always protected unless they come forward on their own. ESPECIALLY CHILDREN
This is another case of secret ClA tests on breeters. The ClA has been mind-controlling and testing everyone over the past decades... It's definitely the ClA's ideas to put others into a situation where they can only take a shower a year, as well as constant starving, methodical constant abuse, living in awfeI conditions, and sleep deprivation, and also total isolation. They have always controlled all industries (including the tech industry) and all public figures. They plant all sorts of ideas in humans' mind via hypnosis and then they mask hypnosis by inducing nightmares, which is why those that had a phone close to them had those nightmares. The main problem is/has always been breeters tho -- if breeters didn't ferce yet another sad soul (that cannot and wouldn't even consent to such awfeI things, including breeting without a C-section, which is the most awfeI of all) into a pointless mortaI existence, then there would be no ClA and no such tests, but all dating/breeting is to be banned soon, anyway, as are all other wrong things!
@@rubytuesday1316 oh okay:)
These young women just never fail to amaze me, they should be so so proud of themselves. These are young women that other girls should strive to look up to not trash like the Kardashains, they are true wonders. God Bless you girls 🙏💖🙏💫
Jordans 1st professional photo shoot is now posted on her TikTok/Instagram accts!
Through all the years, these children's beauty never left them. ❤
Jordan’s empathy and compassion is something to be inspired by…
She's so caring. I pray this woman is able to have some sort of normal life
Make sure it’s just not to your own race. Compassion has no color
Jordan looks so much like a "Disney princess " her big eyes, her very animated expressions ... They're both beautiful and strong and they're my heros!
She looks like Anya Taylor Joy
@@zio3vi I thought the same!!
Stunning
Jordans an absolute stunner in every sense of the word
they are beautiful but Jordan literally drop dead gorgeous like a supermodel. Just stunning. We havent seen the rest of the family but they have good genes. The people giving them are monsters though
Jordan is amazing. Her concern for her sister was heart breaking. I hope her life gets better and better. Foster system is broken
My heart hurts for these kids, some adults now. And the one sister noticing her sister upset and instantly reacts and then comforts her by hugging her. Broke my heart.
Its true, most police officers would normally take the kids back home due to a lack of believing them. But those pictures not only saved their lives but it sealed the deal where finally they're able to live regular lives, while having a long road ahead of them to start learning everything they lacked their whole lives. God Bless these kids/young adults.
This has to be the most heartbreaking thing I've ever seen. Such brave children, what a story

Why are you so willing to believe something like this w/out doing your own research into it? There are so many holes in this story you could drive through w/a Mac truck! Have you seen ALL the interviews? You need to not be so naive and willing to believe things on face value. If you'd realize how evil the mainstream media is, you should know better than to fall for their propaganda which is legalized by the evil SMITH-MUNDT ACT which legalizes propaganda. See my full review of this in these comments if you want to see how to think more critically and rationally about this story.
Even if the story IS true - it is choke-full of discrepancies and odd info that doesn't match up. A lot of these stories (most or half) are untrue and the other half that are true have been enhanced and photos and film footage - also has been 'retouched' w/ false narratives by media liars who need to socially engineer the public or boost their falling ratings. It's sad how many ppl are still falling for whatever they hear or see. We need to educate ourselves properly about editing and crisis actors and fake events that get labeled as 'real' when they aren't based on or rooted in reality much - if at all. Pls see the film, WAG THE DOG for further knowledge on how all this works.
You can take a true event and blow it way out of proportion and create a wild story to get attention or ratings. Stop letting your heart strings be pulled so much until you use your critical thinking first. I'm not saying don't have empathy. But we need to balance our empathy w/ our ability to reflectively think first and we need to give it to those who truly deserve it b/c much of our empathy gets wasted on fake stories.
No diff than those SPCA commercials that show all the abused and rugged-looking pets. They show you that to emotionalize you for your monetary contributions that DON'T GO TO THE CHARITY most of the time! They end up in the deep pockets of rich ppl who use us to get rich off of - why do ppl still fall for all this BS??? It's the 21st century - time to wake up folks!
@@kaitlynkarol4600 imaging typing all of this out just to be wrong lmao
Their mother bought tons of toys and kids clothes just to hoard to herself while her children sit in filthy clothes, and accuse them of stealing food in the household??? The whole situation makes me so angry, and I'm glad they were finally freed from that prison.
Basically bought the clothes to laugh and say haha got all these clean clothes but you’re not allowed to wear them, you gotta wear your dirty clothes. Really sickening
Ya how fucking sick is that. Spending thousands on children's clothes and toys simply for the joy it brings you to neglect your children from those items. You know it was done for some sort of evil pleasure of knowing the kids have it around but aren't allowed to wear or play
Psychopaths
Heavens lord please bless these beautiful children. absolutely heartbreaking how many years they have lost. they are beautiful and so strong, I hope they will enjoy every moment of their freedom now.
When her father smiled at her in the barbie video, it just baffles me how people can be and seem so nice one minute then the next... horrible. It breaks my heart.
1:46 - As soon as Jordan notices her sister is in distress you see the genuine concern in her face. You cannot fake that, that is true sibling love.
