ABC News
The interview comes over four years after two of their sisters, Jennifer and Jordan, became the first of the Turpin siblings to speak out.
Days after being rescued from the California household where the 13 Turpin siblings suffered horrific abuse at the hands of their own parents, six of the youngest children entered the foster care system. They hoped for a loving home after enduring years of torture, according to Julissa Turpin.
"I genuinely just wanted to be safe," the 19-year-old told ABC News.
Julissa, her sister Jolinda, 20, and their brother, James, who was also in the foster home, are now speaking out for the first time about the abuse they experienced at the hands of their birth and then foster parents in a new interview with ABC News.
