ABC reports that in court on Tuesday state workers described how Diana Franklin forced her adopted daughter to live in a hot shed with no air conditioning, locking her in for weeks at a time. They also accused the woman of depriving the child of food, forcing her to read and write Bible verses as punishment, cut her hair as punishment, forced her into a chicken coop, and more.

When confronted by concerned neighbors about the harsh treatment, Diana Franklin said that she was “doing what the Bible says” by punishing the girl for not doing chores the “right way.”

The 15-year-old victim told authorities her adoptive parents made her spend days locked inside a small outhouse and chicken coop, wearing a shock collar as punishment for not doing her school work. Other reports indicate the girl was forced to live on bread and water for days on end as punishment.

During her testimony, the teen described being locked in various outbuildings on the family’s property when she was menstruating. She was allowed to wear only a shirt, and no under garments during this time….

Defense attorney Kevin Bailey said the couple was raising their adopted daughter in accordance to their religious beliefs.

Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards tells Rep. Jason Chaffetz to “check your source” after the congressman was caught lying about a deceptive chart he was using in a failed attempt to discredit the women’s health organization.

Hey, Congress, how about you stop wasting my money throwing tantrums and doing ‘investigations’ into organizations which have been officially cleared of all wrongdoing, and, for once, DO YOUR ACTUAL FUCKING JOBS.
