A new detail has emerged in the Ohio “House of Horrors” case following the June 30 arrest of Elizabeth and Gary Siders in connection with keeping their 16 children in inhumane conditions.
According to court documents released on July 14, the parents, aged 33 and 36, had previously been charged with truancy-related offenses after failing to send six of their children to school.
In Ohio, a child is considered truant if they miss 42 hours of classes in one month.
