Woman held ‘severely emaciated’ stepson in captivity for 20 years

     

    Both sides of his door had been secured with plywood and a lock, the man would later say, to stop him from getting out.

    For years, he’d only been given two sandwiches – egg or tuna salad, or peanut butter – and a small amount of water each day, he’d recall, in the storage space where he was held.

    But now, he had a plan.

    Printer paper for kindling. Hand sanitizer for fuel. And a lighter.
