The cars in their driveway seemed pretty new and after filing bankruptcy I doubt they'd be able to get a home loan. Their kids had no jobs and probably no credit to ruin and they owned the house. What's more interesting, they owned it for years before moving in in 2014 iirc. Not sure what all they were involved in but they had to be getting cash from somewhere. I'm still betting he pimped those kids, probably the one night a year they got to shower.

Apparently the Turpins were from active Pentecostal homes, so TFI would not be a stretch at all.

Backstory:

PERRIS, Calif. — The 13 starving siblings held captive in a California house were allowed to eat only one rationed meal a day and shower just twice a year, a law enforcement official with knowledge of the case told NBC News.

Their home in Perris, a city in Riverside County east of Los Angeles, was a veritable prison, where some of the couple’s children, who range in age from 2 to 29, were chained to furniture, officials have said. The rooms inside the brown-and-beige four-bedroom house were filled with urine, the law enforcement official said.
