Months after investigators began probing alleged failures in the care of 13 Turpin children, they say they still can't access needed records due to confidentiality rules.
ABC(CALIFORNIA) The top elected official in Riverside County, California, said Tuesday that she was appalled by the abuse endured by the 13 Turpin children over the years, stressing that the county is determined to investigate allegations that the siblings continued to be mistreated after they were placed under the county's care nearly four years ago. Karen Spiegel, chairwoman of the Riverside Board of Supervisors, offered her first public comments since the plight of many of the Turpin children was detailed during ABC's "20/20" Diane Sawyer special event, "Escape From A House Of Horror," which aired on Nov. 19. "I, like many of you, watched the recent '20/20' special on the Turpin children. The reaction for most of us was horror, disgust. What happened to those children during that time was something none of us would want ourselves or our children to ever live through," said Karen Spiegel, chairwoman of the Riverside County Board
