This story of the parents that adopted 7 children in Florida made me so mad when I first heard about it. I can not imagine anyone doing this. This goes past abuse to torture I'm glad that the laws in Florida has this has a felony for the parents with a max. sentence of 30 yrs. Just needed to vent a little.

Dear God! That's just . . . insane. Hopefully, these people get the max. sentence.

Were they on the run or something? I guess I missed why the couple was in Utah while the kids were in Florida. And why did they leave two of the seven alone? I mean, I'm glad they did, but . . . ?

That is utterly horrifying and disgusting. I want to slap the smiles right off their faces.

Chances are they will suffer greatly in prison.People who go to jail for hurting children often become victums of violence at the hands of other inmates.

Those poor kids I hope they can recover. They must be so afraid and hurt. Very saddening story.
