Kimberley Sullivan, a 56-year-old woman from Connecticut, faces serious kidnapping and assault charges after allegedly confining her stepson to a small room for nearly 20 years. The man, now 32, was discovered following a fire he intentionally set in his confinement area. He stated his desire for freedom and was found emaciated. Sullivan denied wrongdoing, with her lawyer claiming a strong defense will be presented. The case has garnered significant attention due to the severity of the allegations and the man's harrowing situation.
"I wanted my freedom," he told first responders who treated him for smoke inhalation and fire exposure. Authorities quickly noticed that he was severely emaciated.
Sullivan's lawyer stated, "We don't feel the state's case is as strong as it may appear on the surface. Over the coming months, we plan to put forth a strong defense."
