24 YEARS!

I was horrified a few nights ago watching a show on MSNBC about a man named Josef Fritzl. Fritzl lives in Austria, and for 24 YEARS (yes, more than two decades) he kept his daughter held prisoner in his basement and fathered 7 children, 3 of which he held captive as well. His wife even lived in the house and didn’t know! This makes my heart break! How could someone go 24 years in a windowless basement without anyone knowing!

Did any of you hear about this story?
