'House of Horrors' survivor Jordan Turpin has opened up about how her ordeal means she is constantly on the verge of crying – five years after her daring escape.

The 22-year-old spent her entire childhood imprisoned inside her California home with her 12 siblings before she managed to escape through a window in January 2018.

Following David and Louise's arrests in January 2018, horrific details began to emerge of the extent of torture, abuse and neglect that the children - who ranged in age from two to 29 at the time - suffered.

Some of the children reported they 'felt betrayed' by local officials' handling of their cases, said Melissa Donaldson, Riverside County's director of victim services.

The kids were threatened with belts and sticks and even told that if they didn't behave, the parents would chain them to their beds and pull their hair.
