So they put people in prison for pot and these scumsucking pigs get a 9,000 dollar bond. WTF!?  
Three adopted children who allegedly suffered burns and were forced to eat pet food lived in "inhumane conditions" and might never fully recover, an Oklahoma sheriff said Thursday.
"They have been raised worse than dogs," Canadian County Sheriff Randall Edwards told CNN of the three malnourished juveniles, who are 9, 11 and 15.
John Kluth, 50, and Sonja Kluth, 57, of Yukon, Oklahoma, are accused by the district attorney's office of three counts of child abuse and three counts of child neglect, authorities said.
The complaint alleges the Kluths confined the 15-year-old boy to a plastic dog carrier for two months and deprived him of food.
The couple, who surrendered Tuesday, were released on a bond of $9,000 each. A phone number for them was unlisted.
"We are certainly not happy with the low bond," Edwards said.
The Kluths confessed to some of the allegations during the execution of a search warrant, the sheriff said. According to an affidavit filed in support of the arrest warrant, Sonja Kluth told investigators that she had tried but lost control of the children and had become a "monster," doing things she never should have done.
The three children are in custody of the Department of Human Services and are improving, according to the sheriff.
All three have stunted growth, Edwards said. He called it the worst abuse case he has seen.
According to the department, the 15-year-old was found sleeping in a box behind an Oklahoma City store on November 28. An investigator learned about child abuse at his residence in Yukon, a city about 15 miles west of Oklahoma City. The teen has an 11-year-old brother and 9-year-old sister.
Originally, the three were foster children in Wisconsin, officials said. The state placed them in the home of the Kluths, who adopted them and were still receiving $1,500 per child per month from Wisconsin after they moved to Oklahoma, Edwards said.
The Wisconsin Department of Children and Families is withholding adoption assistance payments, said Erika Monroe-Kane, communications director for the department.
"On January 20, 2011, we received information from the State of Oklahoma that the children had been removed from the Kluths' home. That same day, we requested additional information from Oklahoma and are still awaiting their response," she wrote in an e-mail to CNN Thursday.

I am beyond words. Why don't they get no bond and immediate prison time? WHY?

The money they used to post bond is probably the same money they were getting paid to take care of those children.
Some people are just sick. They make me think of all the horrible things I'd do to them.

Nice. I was initially going to make a joke involving hillbillies and the fucked up things they should do to these people. But that's all bad karma. (Although these people need to die a slow, gruesome, horrible, inhuman death. )

This is a very fucked up story, their bails were wayyyy too low. The version of this story I read a couple days ago said that they kept all 3 kids in pet crates, fed the 2 boys only dog food and fed the girl cat food, and punished them by breaking their fingers with hammers and burning them and shit like that. It's one of the worst abuse stories I've heard.

Heres more info from the cnn article http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/02/24/oklahoma.abuse.case/index.html
Quote:
Authorities said the Kluths are accused of burning the children with hot spoons, choking them and locking them "in the storm shelter behind the residence for long periods of time with only chairs to sit in and plastic buckets for bathroom use. It was also alleged that the Kluths deprived the children of meals for punishment and fed them cat food and dog food," according to a statement from authorities.
The older boy said all three had their tongues burned with a hot spoon for lying, authorities said. The affidavit said the teen revealed scars to his body and smashed fingers. The girl and younger boy had multiple injuries on their face and bodies.
The girl reported Sonja Kluth hit her with handles of brooms and mops and strangled her until she "could not breathe," according to the affidavit.
The older boy said Sonja Kluth would tell him "get back up here, you know I want blood," during the abuse, authorities said. John Kluth told investigators the couple was strict and that "there is a wall of discipline in the home."
The kids are illiterate, although Sonja Kluth said she was home-schooling them, Edwards told CNN.
"The children disclosed that the Kluths had struck them in the face and about their bodies with their fists, struck their heads on the floor repeatedly and struck them with objects, including but not limited to a mallet, a soup spoon, a can opener and the buckle end of a belt," the statement said.
One of the children was told by Sonja Kluth that he should commit suicide, the statement said.
The sheriff also said that three biological children of the couple, who are now adults, urged Wisconsin officials to investigate their claims that they were abused while living at home.
The Wisconsin Department of Children and Families said it could not comment on specific allegations relating to anything that may have happened in that state.
"Under Wisconsin law the Department is prohibited from providing confidential information as it pertains to specific children," according to Monroe-Kane.
The Kluths' biological son, Bill, told CNN Oklahoma City affiliate KWTV he was not shocked by the allegations.
"These people were basically out just for the money. They weren't out for taking care of these kids," he said.

I can hardly read stories like this because it creates in me such disgust and anger. I try hard (and often fail miserably) to be a forgiving and kind person who doesn't judge others but these kinds of things make me sick. I want to see those people tortured beyond what is humanly endurable and it creates a quandary in my heart. How can anyone show compassion for people who would do these horrible things? It just breaks my heart. I don't want to see stories like this but I don't want to just turn a blind eye to the suffering in this world either. I can only hope and pray that these kids who have suffered at the hands of these fools will come to know a love that is all encompassing. One that will heal the wounds inflicted on them. Talk about wanting to send good vibes...

It seems as if the people in power know exactly what they're doing.
Let the freaks and sociopaths roam freely so they can traumatize the population and give us problems so debilitating that we have no hope of becoming strong individuals.
