Das Opfer wog nur noch 31 Kilo und lebte auf sieben Quadratmetern: In Connecticut ist ein Mann offenbar jahrelang von seiner Stiefmutter weggesperrt worden. Die Flucht gelang ihm, indem er ein Feuer legte.
In Connecticut, USA, a woman was arrested for allegedly imprisoning her stepson for 20 years, starting when he was 11. The 32-year-old man, who weighed only 31 kg, escaped in February after setting a fire. He claims he was initially locked up for sneaking out to find food at age three, and later kept imprisoned constantly. The stepmother, Kimberly S., was released on $300,000 bail. A former school principal reported repeatedly contacting child services about the boy's situation years prior, but the stepmother's lawyer denies the allegations.
