Summary
A West Virginia couple, Jeanne Kay Whitefeather and Donald Lantz, received prison sentences of 215 and 160 years, respectively, for forcing their five adopted Black children into slave labor.
Authorities discovered the abuse after a welfare check revealed children locked in a shed without water or sanitation.
The couple, charged with human trafficking, child neglect, and forced labor, targeted the children because of their race.
The court ordered them to pay $280,000 in restitution each.
I do. If I was in favor of casual and unnecessary suffering I’d be a hypocrite for guillitong people over their lax attitudes towards casual and unnecessary suffering. I don’t believe in “it’s ok when we do it”. I don’t want to live in a society where it’s considered acceptable.
