Kimberly Sullivan, 56, was charged with kidnapping and assault after her 32-year-old stepson was found locked in a small room, having allegedly been held captive since age eleven. The man set a fire to escape, prompting an investigation that revealed severe malnourishment and abuse over two decades. He was discovered weighing only 68 pounds, with the police stating he had suffered 'the worst treatment of humanity.' Sullivan denies these allegations and awaits further legal proceedings.
His stepmother had held him captive in their four-bedroom home since he was 11, enduring prolonged abuse and starvation for over 20 years.
The victim disclosed to first responders that he intentionally set the fire in his room, stating, 'I wanted my freedom,' highlighting his plight for escape.
