A couple arrested after some of their adopted children were found locked in a shed at their West Virginia home are set for trial later this year on charges that a judge said involved their use as “slaves.”

Donald Ray Lantz and Jeanne Kay Whitefeather face trial later this year after they were arraigned on 16 counts each accusing them of civil rights violations, human trafficking, forced labor, gross child neglect and falsifying an application seeking a public defender. All but one of the counts are felonies.

Very sad, adoptive children deserve better.

Since it’s been 3 days and we have not heard it is probably safe to say they are not Republicans.

The race part is BS…the leftist article glosses quickly over the “child trafficking “ part…and instantly goes to race. These people are scum and so are the so called “journalists “…aka Goebbels scum.

Chores?

Find out if they’re registered democrats and run with it. What do you think the left would do with this?

if i wanted indentured servant, i’d pick blacks for manual labor. pale skinned are not good under the sun, they’re better on administrator duties.

that’s the reason why “what do you call 5 blacks and 1 white guy” joke is funny.

we have old white people in our neighborhood who have a bunch of slow foster kids.
Those kids do all the chores, while the oldsters sit on their porch and watch.

Depends on where. In northern areas with less sunlight, it would differ
