Wife, kids held captive for 3 years
A Georgia man is being accused of keeping his wife and 4 children in captivity for 3 years inside their mobile home.
Lavonia Police Chief Bruce Carlisle says 36-year-old Raymond Daniel Thurmond was arrested Tuesday when he showed up for work. He has been charged with rape, child abuse and false imprisonment.
He is awaiting a bond hearing and does not yet have an attorney.
Carlisle says the wife and children had been allowed to leave just once since 2005. A 14-year-old once attended first grade, but the other children had never been to school.
