Early Sunday morning on January 14, 2018, a 17-year old juvenile escaped from her residence situated in the 100 Block of Muir Woods Road, Perris & managed to call 911 from a cellular device she found inside the house. The teenager claimed her 12 brothers & sisters were being held captive inside the residence by her parents & further claimed some of her siblings were bound with chains & padlocks. 

When Police Officers from the Perris Police Department & Deputies from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department met with the juvenile, she appeared to be only 10 years old & slightly emaciated. After a brief interview with the female, they contacted 57-year old David Allen Turpin & 49-year old Louise Anna Turpin at the residence where the teenager escaped. 

Further investigation revealed several children shackled to their beds with chains & padlocks in dark & foul-smelling surroundings, but the parents were unable to immediately provide a logical reason why their children were restrained in that manner. Deputies located what they believed to be 12 children inside the house, but were shocked to discover that 7 of them were actually adults, ranging in age from 18 to 29. The victims appeared to be malnourished & very dirty. Perris Station Detectives were dispatched to the residence for further investigation. 

All 13 victims, ranging from the age of 2 to 29, were transported to the Perris Station & interviewed. Both parents were detained & transported to the station for further investigation. Child Protective Services (CPS) & Adult Protective Services (APS) arrived to assist in the investigation. The victims were provided with food & beverages after they claimed to be starving. 

The six children were eventually transported to the Riverside University Hospital System (RUHS) for medical examinations & admitted for treatment. The seven adult children were transported to Corona Regional Medical Center for an examination & admitted for medical treatment. 

Both parents were interviewed in this matter & subsequently transported to the Robert Presley Detention Center (RPDC). They were booked for violations of California Penal Code Section 206–Torture & Section 273a(A)–Child Endangerment. Bail was set at $9,000,000.00 each. 

Anyone with additional information regarding this investigation is encouraged to contact Master Investigator Tom Salisbury at the Perris Station by calling (951) 210-1000, or by email at PerrisStation@RiversideSheriff.org
