Kids who escaped house of horrors sent to foster parents who 'made them eat own vomit'

The Turpin children were rescued in 2018 from a life of captivity in their parents' home in California, US, but say they suffered "severe abuse and neglect" for years in foster care after their rescue.

They've now filed a lawsuit against Riverside County and the private foster care agency whose job it was to protect them.
