Incredibly smart. And how she learned about 911 and being able to call from any cell? Impressive!

@@Renee-ti5xy actually interesting question. i assume she may have seen something like series on the tv or i don't know. this is pretty crazy considering that she doesn't know what's medication but knows what to do in this situation. poor child

I literally just learned from her that you can call 911 without a SIM.

@@rianananan6969i think she said she went through first grade at least? that’s around the time i learnt about emergency services and how it’s always accessible

​@@ratboygirlI honestly am not setting out to hurt your feelings, but the fact from this whole video that was the comment you chose to post is insufferably sad.

Not crying from a traumatic event is very normal. I’ve met a lot of people who have told me about how they were beaten and raped in their childhood and none of them cried. People who experienced trauma are emotionally numb, I hope this clears this up because trauma isn’t anything like how movies and tv shows make it out to be. That’s not to say they’ve never cried about it but they’re numb when they have to retell their trauma, especially if it happened a long time ago

@@Gogoogooooogoloser

Defund Ukraine

it was her normal. she knew it was wrong, just not how wrong.

​@@Gogoogooooogo I wouldn't really say they are 'numb' to their trauma especially if they got sexually assaulted that stuff sticks with you. . . I most certainly believe she didn't know how bad her situation was seeing as how her siblings were chained up and she tried to reason with them stating "IT was because of food" like they were the ones in the wrong

At least the kids will all be grown. They will have no power to abuse them ever again. That is a very good thing.

From what I’ve read they have both got life sentences

@@lisafoos8976 you're right, at least, but it wouldn't be fair and it would never be fair to what happened between the "parents" and the children.

25 to live that means the earliest chance on parole is after 25 years, but they don't need to be released and I'm quite sure, they won't be!

they got life, possible parole after 25 years but thats never gonna happen with the mental state of these monsters

@@DanTheManWhosSuslike*

Very well said.

They said 25 years to life in prison.

Especially since her reason was she doesn’t talk to other people outside.

@@BK-is5fj idk if I have adhd, but I'm exactly like her if I'm in a conversation with someone

Yes

Even worse was when she said she's not hurt "right now," meaning she usually is.

You're joking right... the cop that scooped her was absolutely atrocious. He was barely "ready to do" anything.

@@zachallen6350 to be fair the cop may have been too shocked by what he was hearing especially coming from a child. Or he was weighing his options to what he could do at that moment because I don't think he could have just barged in that house to save the children by himself. What if the father was armed and dangerous? What if the girl was lying just to get her parents into trouble? He had to think carefully about his next move or the situation could have turned way uglier than it was.

@@zachallen6350 tf arw you talking about? He was doing everything right, getting as much information out if her as possible to he could claim probable cause to investigate. He had to act calm and monotone because not only is he a stranger to this girl and he is trying to calm her down, but as she said, she's never talked to anyone outside the house before, the cop cant initiate an investigation on the word of a child alone, no matter how badly they want to, they need to have proof that there was a substantial amount evidence to justify going to someones house and entering it to snoop around

​@@zachallen6350 What a room temp IQ statement. In what universe would any reasonable person have any idea that 13 kids are in a normal looking suburban home and being treated this horrifically?

Honestly amazing to leave and call people you had no prior experience with in surroundings you're not familiar with. Takes some serious guts to pull off

shes a hero!! she's planned an escape, without an education. its amazing.

Perhaps but given the situation I'm also noticing some serious hyper intelligence. She'd been out for merely minutes and was fully prepared to care for herself with zero actual practice. She just went out there and did the damn thing. Edit: I've looked into this whole thing. Turns out she was a very bright kid. She's a relatively successful fashion model now and I do believe she designs some of her clothing as well.

"Amnesia" tripped me up a bit. She never goes outside, has no formal education. How'd she learn that concept?

@@bensmith3890 she had access to television and amnesia is a very common tool in storytelling.

@@bensmith3890 I would also guess that the parents used the word amnesia when trying to deceive the kids. Just a guess, but I could see that happening.

@@abridgedbog7753 they also say medication a lot in television

She didn't even know what injuries were

If you watch the 20/20 episode it actually shows the operator and the cop who was first on the scene. They both seem like really good people. They reunite the cop and Jordan and it’s a very sweet moment.

Omg wow, the 911 operator and the first cop to Jordan were absolutely awful. Terrible

@@AiRPasternak is it bad that I did the same thing😂💀

She did say that she didn't even finish first grade. I suppose they didn't have much access to TV, computer games, books etc., so she wasn't even able to pick these words up from there. She missed out on so much education it's terrifying.

@@KARMAZYNA I’m pretty sure she said she never even finished first grade and that most of the kids should be in third grade by now.

@@AiRPasternak I think that's when the officer became sure that he was handling a legitimate high-profile case. The girls behavior was being consistent with her claims in a way even she couldn't know.

Classic narcissist apology.

Unfortunately we don't know much about the rest of the sister, but after this whole situation came to light, the siblings have been separated and some of them went to foster parents, who abused them sexually and physically(Olguin family) . Let them relive their trauma by forcing them to talk about the horrors they have been through.

​@@lao-ce8982as a father my blood is boiling watching this. Hearing that these kids were further tormented by others damn sure didn't help.

Very brave 😊

At least the phone didn’t die when she tried calling

16:36 why did i immediately know it was a low battery smoke detector

I’m actually surprised by how intelligent she seems. She barely had social interactions with “normal” people in her live, was malnourished and uneducated. But she still managed to have a decent conversation and explain her problem(s) to the police officer. It makes me sad to think of what she could’ve become if she had grown up in a normal and healthy family with a way to get education.

she hot

@@lividlarry1026her parents could be monsters, but her oldest sister is 29 at the time, so she could pick up from older siblings a bit

The fact that she didnt know what injuries were made me think that her parents really were as bad as she said

Yeah if it's any normal officer they prolly reject her and threaten to shoot when she started to get too sticky with the cop.

my first thoughts were that she likely learned that mostly from watching TV

I figure she's great at pantomiming social skills when that was what she was forced to do in order to eat

​@@IeadIf she did had access to tv, i assume she knew what medicine is

If im not wrong she got a phone and some kinda of acess to internet, she meet a kid that told her and the kid told her How bad her situation was and she should call the police. I remember a vídeo talking about this but i do not remember the veracity or the Channel

She obviously lived with her sister there, so thats also a way to practice communication

THE FOSTER SYSTEM IS BROKEN. the friends I have in foster care have not been treated well and I hate that it is the way it is.

Nooooooo that is so sad

@@WafiSiuuyy You mean that after the children were rescued and went into foster care, other monsters abused them as well? There is no god.

Oh come on...

Yep, directly from Wikipedia: In October 2019, five of the younger children were adopted by an abusive family who further tormented them. Allegations included "hitting them in the face with sandals, pulling their hair, hitting them with a belt, and striking their heads". They were forced to eat excessively and then forced to eat "their own vomit", and the foster father was accused of "grabbing and fondling" them and "kissing them on the mouth".[41] The foster family was arrested and charged with abusing multiple children in their care.

Children can learn very fast if they really want to. I started reading when I was 2 years old because I wanted to understand comic books, turned out it was in a completely different language than what I spoke but I learned it all the same. I understood 4 languages before even going to school and am up to 7 languages now. There are also an additional 4-5 languages that i understand well enough that I could probably get by with using them if I really had to. Formal education unfortunately often kills the joy of learning unless you're extremely motivated.

@@angelash8998bro really? what's her account?

​@@kirai9018LoL COLLEGE BAD! grow up

The way she spoke reminded me of how children in preschool or allaround the age of 3-6 tell stories. Often jumping between different "plots" revisiting them seemingly at random when they remember/invent a new detail. Thats normal for a child that age but not an 17 year old

Maybe he has kids himself and didn't want to scare any of them still in the house, or maybe he just didn't want to escalate things knowing what a big task was on their hands.

Not only is she a hero, she is rich as FUCK now, after the whole turpin case she blew up on social media, went on interviews and is now doing modelling (or something like that). Her estimated net worth is 300k+ which is hella good for a 21 year old. Glad to see she's thriving and doing amazingly right now.

​@@Eric0225 I'm happy for her, but having a net worth of 300k is far from rich. It doesn't mean she has 300k in the bank. It just means she owns a really inexpensive home probably. And "owning" it doesn't even mean it's paid off, you could still owe almost all of it, with interest. Most people with a 300k net worth are struggling financially.

@@HaltDieKlappa You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Your net worth is your total assets with debts subtracted from it. If she is 21 year old she has made a net worth of $300k in the last 5 years, with most of it probably coming from the last 1 or 2 years, she's making probably between $100-200k / year now (rough guesstimate). Nothing of what you said makes any sense at all. It's okay to be wrong, but when you are being wrong while 'correcting' someone that just makes it even more stupid. :)

@@kurtkurtson9111 and you're telling me that some fan website that tells celebrity net worth, knows what she owes? Or did she release her net worth personally?

@@HaltDieKlappawell it’s sure as hell rich for a 21 year old. And it’s definitely rich compared to being malnourished

I felt the same way with a few of these questions but they are for their eventual treatment/support and for safety. For example he asks repeatedly why they “didn’t just leave” but it’s a way to make sure the doors aren’t trapped, nothing in the yard, guard dogs, etc.

It seems like an obvious question, but I think he was just trying to get more information about the situation. He probably was figuring out himself "why she didn't know much," but any more information she can provide him with will be valuable in a court case. You know?

Nope. It was clearly an investigative question, it's just that you didn't get that ;-) Cops handled this exceptionally well, helped the victims, made sure they were safe, deescalated the situation as much as possible but stepped into action as soon as they had enough legally to be decisive. Made sure there were no guns involved, didn't take the mofo's word for it and searched him and how they handled the parents psychologically was great. Their task is not to condemn or be aggressive or emotional, it's to investigate and act decisively without endangering anyone. If we had more cops like these, a whole lot of suffering could be prevented

His gum smacking is driving me crazy.

@@mollykottke8034 In all respect for his work, and knowing everyone deals with stress differently, I hope his superior tells him "Next time you are on a recording for a case, if I hear a single gum, I'll put you on desk duty for the rest of your fucking career."

What's so saddening to me is she doesn't just sound 10, she talks like my 7 year old cousins, she just has a deeper voice and more self awareness; possibly from the horrific abuse they experienced

8yrs that's all she sounded like an 8yr old

Honestly, my daughter just turned 10 in October, and, if I didn’t know any better, I would have thought I was listening to her talking to one of her friends or something.

... not to mention after being rescued the six youngest Turpin children were abused again so they filed a Lawsuit against Riverside County and ChildNet. Then the $600,000 in donations was stolen meant for the Turpin children in a Trust you missed the ending in this video.

Given the chance, I expect she could do very well in life. Clearly running with high horse power.

The policeman sounded like he was chewing an entire pack of gum and asking how a phone can connect to 911, made me think he wasn't sure about the seriousness of the situation. I'm grateful he didn't take her back to her parents like police have been known to do eg Dahmer's victim.

Thinking that string of numbers was the zip code plus a 4 digit extension...probably memorized from a piece of mail 🎉😢❤

Hell yeah

Well....they were separated and incorporated into the foster system. So we won't really know unfortunately.

I'm a foster parent and I take really good care of my children so hopefully they get a good foster parent although I will acknowledge that there are some bad ones out there too. If States invested more in the foster care system more parents would feel like there was support enough to enter foster care and that's how you entice great parents. Trust me when I tell you it will always be a financial net loss but having the support of being able to offer up all the resources needed to help kids that are this traumatized is so important and without it parents are scared to open their homes.

My ex girlfriend and her sister were kept completely isolated and horribly abused very much like this case. The father was sent to prison but the mother was in my view even MORE evil than the father and never spent a day in jail.

Gods honest truth right there. Astonishing courage and she was so polite to the dispatcher. Such a sweet girl.

There are adults who couldn't handle half of what these poor children went through. Despite the neglect, isolation and abuse, she's very astute. I wish all of these children the best in life. They absolutely deserve it.

I was thinking the same thing. For someone who has had almost literally no social interaction her ability to express herself is impressive. I am much more sad about her constant apologizing, as it's likely a trauma response learned over many years of abuse and something she needed to learn to remain "safe" as one could be there...

I was wondering what they do in meantime, if they dont go to school. Like what was their parents plan to rise their children to become as adults and dont everybody have reason for the way they raise their children, so why cant they explain, when I bet that its not gods plan to raise up children like that. God never said to you to malnutirate your children like that. It looked the parents wanted to tease their children with buying toys they cant use or food they cant eat, while the parents eat it themselves. Whats the point to even buy toys you dont let your kids not use, because toys are not really that special. I wonder what would happen, if one kid picks up knife, because you tease him by not letting him eat any food at all. The letter in the end where she said she loves her children sounds so fake, if your 29 year old daughter weights in 82 pounds.

This whole video made me cry, especially after hearing this: "Are you hurt?" - "Not right now."

The system is rifled with opportunistic ppl like that. Lots pf scummy ppl only doing fostering for the money and treating the children horribly.

The system doesn’t care about kids

Yep. That disgusting Hispanic man sexually assaulted some of the underage girls.

Most of the foster parents and group homes staff are in it for the money and will definitely treat the children like shit to blow off steam or just for the hell of it. Then the kids labeled as bad because they will act out with no real support system or anything and then they are discredited due to their behavior so nobody would hear them if they were abused. I’ve witnessed it first hand

As a, what I would consider "caring" foster parent, it's horrible to see the abuse of children at both the hands of the government and bad foster parents. Just this year, a foster child was forcibly removed from our home for attacking one of our children, and since nobody wanted her, she was put into the psych ward of the hospital for a month. The psych ward was just a monitored hospital room, with a hospital bed. During that time, she didn't see daylight, nor leave her room. She just got to sit there, and watch TV and eat. School was put on hold. The system didn't care about her, and didn't visit, just a box checked in their mind. My wife and I at least visited her once a day and keep her spirits high.

​@@MurronWright considering the amount of cases where kids are just sent back to their parents, if that, there was 1 or 2 cases where a kid was given to a serial murderer that just convinced the cops that it was their kid (despite the kid crying it was not their parent) This is actually very competent in comparison.

Every child deserves a parent but not every parent deserves a child.

oh I know all about it.

@@user-xj5xp6qz5gsame - it’s my dad who did it to me so

LOL, David had a college degree & was an engineer for Northrop Gruman, his salary was around $140K a year!

Exactly! You'd think someone with a heart would make sure all the children, the adults and the younger ones got the care and education they needed. I can't believe someone had the audacity to try steal from them, considering all hey went through.

Capitalist country

@@yellowgreen5229 what does that have to do with a capitalist country?

@@ernestogastelum9123 Everything lol. America monetizes everything, monetized these damn kids even. America trasssssh

@@ernestogastelum9123 a wealthy person who uses money to invest in trade and industry for profit in accordance with the principles of capitalism. Let's get these kids out of the gutter, into the spotlight, and back into another gutter??????? k

As a HUMAN BEING I am so freaking PROUD of that girl too!

That shit would take the heart of a lion to do what a legend and I pray and hope she gets all of gods blessings

It's so sad half the children were older than her

​@@Sam-uz3iqah damn it's one of you

Same, it's hard to forget about.

not even "the", just "mother", like it's some god they worship

It’s a horror game I sware I think it’s so scary that the games I play could be based of true events like this is a nightmare

I also noticed she didn't just use they when describing her siblings but also herself. Sometimes when enduring extreme trauma as a child your sense of self doesn't solidify in order to shield your mind from the horror and you end up with a system of multiple personalities. I wonder if this may have been happening or at least some disassosciation

Yeah. I thought she was just speaking impersonally but as you're saying it could be something else. Edit: she just referred to her siblings as "the older ones" so I think it's impersonal.

@@JohnSmith-mc2zz could be, but I'm no expert in the matter. She also didn't know the word medicine or injuries

She didn’t know what “injuries” meant 😢

It doesn’t sound like he much believes her & that gum chewing has got to go

@@shirleymason3853 hahahaha big chewer

@@shirleymason3853 he was probably in disbelief, but i don't think he didn't believe her - i think he was just stunned

@@lnem6976 well that’s true he didn’t make her go back in the case she was telling him the truth; it’s so very sad 😔

If that’s all they know, it becomes normal to them but they know deep down something is really wrong. I’m sure that one kid was in denial thinking the parents intentions were good. What happened to them was a long nightmare, and the brave girl became a hero and rescued her siblings. I hope they are all doing a lot better. It’s sad that they really struggled in foster homes too…

It's a testament to how smart human beings are. Despite of being deprived of all the outside world they still manage to figure some incredible things out.

Also I know I already commented but David Turpin being a child predator doesn’t surprise me.

America.

@@Virjunior01It’s a worldwide issue

I think these people are delusional and they truly believe what they're saying. I'm usually not one to judge a book by its cover, but I can't shake the feeling that they look as mad as they seem to be. The woman has a strange gleam in her eye. Her husband seems to be the main source of the crazy in the family. I'm truly sorry for the children. If I had to go through the same, I doubt I would have been able to recover.

That’s how my mom was. She was the sweetest kindest person that would take in stray animals and give you the shirt off her back, but on the other hand she’d get into drugs, and abuse us. She had mental problems but the drugs exasperated her condition… and believed she could’ve been half decent maybe if she hadn’t gotten in with the wrong people… Don’t know if she knew what she was doing was wrong or if it was the drugs and past mental problems that skewed her reality… she is delusional saying she never done anything wrong, and act saintly though it was a double sided coin. I was taken at 3 to live with my grandma. And at the time at my moms house There was hardly any food, there was medicine and beer laid out for me to get into. I got into children’s Tylenol one time and drank the whole bottle and had to go to the hospital… I was never dressed for the seasons and would get locked out at 2 years old in the winter with nothing but a diaper on, and the only times I could get warm in the winter was to have a hot bath, and I can remember being slung up against the wall a few times by her and her boyfriend. Now, Me and my mother talk occasionally but I don’t like to cause she brings all that up over and over, how she did nothing wrong and hated my grandmother for taking me away. And how god had a plan for me and knew I was needed else where and now he has given me back to her 🙄… And I can’t stand to listen to her disrespect my grandma in that way… i have problems not showing my temper and voicing my opinions and I don’t want to hurt her feelings so I just avoid it all I can. I would’ve been sent to foster care if my grandma hadn’t took me in. Thank god I never had to experience that.

I lived in an abusive home. My stepdad called us brats and whores, all the while my mom making excuses for him. She said he loved us very much, but he had a funny way of showing it. It happens all the time, claiming love, yet doing the opposite. It's very confusing for the children.

Yes. And she didn't specifically say something directly bad about her mom. She knows she has to be kind or she gets punished. Even with the officers, she could be hurt again. Even her sisters would rather stay silent without knowing that they could be saved. No wonder when they never felt safe ever in your life.

It’s adrenaline mostly. How incredibly terrified she must have been

When she apologized for talking too much my soul died a little. She learned that, it's so fucking sad

I hope you're in a better place now, because I also understand.

@@Iumine why might she be feeling adrenaline in a normal situation such as walking out of the house to call the police? Maybe because she has been traumatized and is terrified? Seems like the simplest explanation. Sorry it’s hard to understand.

Some would say nobody but God.

@@kiddthree religion is the cause of this situation: can't you see it?

@@kiddthree yeah i am sure she wants to hear that god helped her after all what happened.... she did this on her own and she is much smarter than most of us for beeing to well educated despite these circumstances

@@italicus74 No those parents are evil. Nowhere in the Bible can you look up or read that justifies anything they have done. God loves his children, what you have to understand is that some people are mentally unstable and twist things to their own benefit and disgusting pleasure. This is nothing short of what people back then did to slaves

@@ttgemail4072 I’m not about to argue with you, it’s very small to make a statement respectfully and that shows me that you don’t have an open mind. This is a 17 year old with not even a 5th grade education she could’nt even tell the officer her address or even knew half the stuff he asked? Yes she was very brave but her and her siblings should not have been alive after that much malnutrition
