I watched this sad but compelling story .Jordan Turpin is clearly intelligent and creative ;Jordan has a unique accent definitely a Virginia influence. Her song writing and composing was like her only emotional outlet . I hope Jordan gets stink 'in RICH off the books she will write or has a ghost writer do it for her. Someone should make a movie titled "Lacey Swan". If I was a producer, I would be all over it. I would want Jordan Turpin to star in the film. I think she could do it too. She is a natural in front of a camera .She's amazing. Having never talked with anyone outside her family, knowing only a little language and almost nothing about the outside world, she graduated from high school in one year. And she still seems so sweet and innocent.

On the night of Jan. 14, 2018, 17-year-old Jordan Turpin made a daring escape from her home and called 911 in order to save herself and her siblings from their abusive parents.

Jordan Turpin was 17 years old when she found herself crawling out of a window of her family's home, hoping to save the lives of her 12 siblings. For two years, she had been planning her escape after decades of unspeakable emotional and physical violence inflicted by her parents in their Perris, California home.

Children from the Turpin family, who were held captive in their California home, discuss how they endured harrowing conditions, including starvation and violence, and reveal details about their rescue.

What an insane episode, where you need to see it to believe it!!HAD HOLLYWOOD MADE A MOVIE ON THIS, YOU WOULD SAY => " Wow, that was very good... what a wild movie! Not quite believable though, this would/could NEVER HAPPEN TODAY!" 100%!!??

Someone needs to buy the right to this story, hopefully the MONEY CAN GO TO THESE KID.. Boy do they deserve it!!! I 100% LOVE WHEN YOU WATCH A MOVIE AND AT VERY END IT SAYS- "BASED ON TRUE STORY"! JAW DROPS!

QUESTION- NOT A SPOILER, IF ANYTHING YOU MAY WANT TO WATCH MORE NOW TO KNOW WHAT I'M TAKING ABOUT REMOTELY!!! WOW, IS JUSTIN BIEBER PARTIALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR SAVING LIVES?! Hmmm...?

IF YOU HAVENT SEEN THIS, let me know your thoughts! Excellent episode, I do NOT GIVE ANYTHING A 10...so this got a 9 from me! "10 means it is the best ever made...". I will say-THE STORY IS A 10, INSANE=> MUCH WATCH!
