Seven children who were rescued from their abusive mother have detailed the years of torture she inflicted on them - including forcing them to drink bleach and pouring it over their genitals.
The alarm was raised on Tuesday, when two of the children - 16-year-old twins, a boy and a girl - managed to escape from the family home in Houston, Texas and convince a neighbor to help.
The mother, Zaikiya Duncan, 40, and her boyfriend Jova Terrell, 27, left the house on learning the twins had escaped and were arrested later that day in Baton Rouge - a four hour drive, across Texas into neighboring Louisiana.
The pair were kept naked and handcuffed to a removal dolly in the laundry room, and their feet were often zip-tied. Photos of the twins showed deep cuts, bruises and scars on their wrists and ankles, along with other parts of their bodies.
The boy said he found the handcuff key in his mother's purse and hid it in his mouth, then made a pre-dawn run for freedom at around 5am. ***
She also made them drink household cleaners like Lysol and Easy Off as a punishment if they 'talked too much,' according to the court documents obtained by the the channel.
Duncan forbade her children to use the bathroom, and they were forced to defecate and urinate on themselves and then eat and drink it.
They only had dirty water from a mop bucket to wash themselves, they said.
The children told the investigators they were subject to extreme beatings, with their mother using extension cords, curtain rods and other metal poles to hit them.

Duncan had previously been accused of child abuse, 10 years ago in Louisiana.

Systemic racism.
Which one is Zakiya?
Unimaginable evil.
Bad enough they could treat *anybody* that way, but their own children??
Prayers up for all of those kids - I hope they are somehow able to heal from the hell they’ve been through.
They seem nice….
I hope they can too. Physically and psychologically. They must never be released to that evil excuse for a mother again, but who knows what Liberal courts will do.
raising children is the most important thing one can do in their life...makes me sick thinking about the life these kids lived. prayers go out to the two 16 year Olds and the younger siblings
Good idea. How about the thousands of people reading this story pray for the poor children, that they will be mentally and physically healed from this abuse. This is just satanic what was inflicted on them.
Negros.
What, is that illegal or something?
This woman had done this before in Louisiana and her tortured kids had been returned to her after a slap on the wrist for her.
I have a relative who is a cop in a Western state and who worked in child abuse. The cops would take these kids out of these homes, literally rescuing them from death, and the judges would give them back to the homes. She (my relative) said the next time the cops would see that child was when he was dead.
The mustard sandwiches don’t sound bad, but it could use a little relish.
Some years ago a Texas woman cooked her baby in a microwave..
This News From the Lighter Side feature doesn’t seem very upbeat.
Oh, wait, wrong thread. 😁
Lives Matter
Horrifying.
So, she and her boyfriend move themselves and her 7 kids to Houston, from Louisiana (it sounds like)...where she’d been known to abuse them, previously....into a $600K house, approximately two weeks ago.
I hope Texas locks this witch (and, her boyfriend) up, for good.
This is not a ‘Texas woman’....fyi.
She’s on the right in that photo.
Animals that need the same treatment for the next 40 years.
No mercy for they are totally evil and probably registered democrats.
Better then calling them Amish.
