Children Confined in Truck for 7 Years | Charleston News

In a shocking case of prolonged child neglect, Florida authorities arrested Keisha Epps and her fiancé Tamra Stewart for allegedly confining four children inside the cab of a tractor-trailer for nearly seven years—since December 2019. The kids, reportedly denied education, medical care, hygiene, and basic human dignity, lived in squalor, sharing a bed too small to lie flat and rarely allowed outside. One child suffered untreated sexual assault and an STI; others endured physical abuse and starvation. Stewart faces potential capital charges, while Epps, on $400K bond with GPS monitoring and no contact with minors, is set for court on September 3rd. The full scope of abuse remains under investigation. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
