"Abused continuously during the 24-year-long imprisonment", Elisabeth bore six children while a seventh died soon after birth, the statement says. His wife Rosemarie had not been aware of what was going on, the statement adds. And less than two years ago... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/5280472.stm Austrian girl 'found' after years More details have emerged in Austria suggesting that a woman found near Vienna on Wednesday is a schoolgirl who vanished eight years ago.

thesultanofsheight Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 6 kids? It must have been a f**king big cellar! and the wife knew nothing? Pull the other one. You have a family of seven living in a cellar, and some of the kids are living with your parents and you didn't know it was going on. Is she retarded?

Pat Ayres Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 If we are to believe that an experienced politician of some 20 yrs could be unaware the woman he sleeps with is the perpetrator of a £90.000 fraud against the government he is a member of, why not. Seems perfectly reasonable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amadeus Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 All over the news in ze Heimatland. Gallery from a German mag: http://www.stern.de/politik/panorama/:%0A%...ten/618580.html Pics of the house from picture 6 onwards - frighteningly similar to the Kampusch case - but then, it's Austria - nothing surprises...

Mutley Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 What is it with Austrians and internment? Poor daughter hidden away for all that time with no daylight, no life, no future, having to raise a bunch of inbreds - and to top it all yer man's no Brad Pitt. You've got to ask how stupid was his wife not to know what was going on.... Hey honey, why are you going to the cellar with all that food? Any why can I hear babies crying and people banging on the walls? It's nothing dear, don't worry you're pretty little head about it. Oh ok honey, dinner will be ready in 5 minutes.

Chinahand Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 After the Austrian Cellar I feel this case is equally if not more disturbing - the father had such power over his victims it took over 20 years for them to speak out. How to stop such evil abuse? BBC story A man who fathered nine children by raping his two daughters over many years has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 19-and-a half years. The 56-year-old from Sheffield was sentenced to a life term for each of the 25 rapes he had admitted. The attacks led to 19 pregnancies, Sheffield Crown Court heard. The daughters said in a statement: "His detention in prison brings us only the knowledge that he cannot physically touch us again." The defendant refused to leave his prison cell to attend the sentencing. Nine of the children were born, two of whom died on the day of their birth. The other 10 pregnancies were miscarried or aborted. The daughters' statement through South Yorkshire Police added: "The suffering he caused will continue for many years and we must now concentrate our thoughts on finding the strength to rebuild our lives." Judge Alan Goldsack QC said: "Questions will inevitably be asked about what professionals, social and medical workers, have been doing for the last 20 years." Jayne Ludlam, director of children's and young people's services at Sheffield City Council, said the abuse was revealed to social workers in June.

P.K. Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 The trial starts tomorrow. He has admitted everything but is expected to plead not guilty to murder. The trial is to last only 5 days as it's very likely not very much will be needed to see him incarcerated for the rest of his revolting life. The testimony from the daughter he imprisoned and repeatedly raped is apparently so harrowing that the jurors are expected to struggle to assimilate it. The likes of Fritzl, Brady and Hindley just beggar belief... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutley Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 And another one... http://www.independent.ie/world-news/asia-...er-1889079.html Personally I don't think that the death sentence should be given to these guys. However I'm all for them being tortured daily for the rest of their natural lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
