I think he discovered the whole thing in his 20's.


Well not quite; as far as I know, his 'sister' was a teenage mother so it probably wasn't a bad decision. Plus I'm guessing that he had a somewhat normal upbringing compared to this Austrian woman...

Okay but it was not a healthy situation

True; I'm guessing it was back in the days when teenage pregnancies were really taboo. This was probably the only alternative to giving up the child. It's harsh though.

If she really didn't have a clue, I wouldn't be surprised. Think about all the women who are abused; they believe their husbands when they say that it's their own fault they get hit. If she was just as subdued, then maybe it was indeed possible to hide all this from her?

I have absolutely no idea.

I'm trying to find clues that show there were more people in the house than just him, his wife and the 3 kids.

I guess this whole affair just boggles the mind. It's impossible for us non-psychopaths to imagine that anyone would ever even think about being capable of doing this.

Read this yesterday and it blew my mind!
They are all saying that the wife knew nothing, but they raised 3 of the children that she gave birth to in captivity in their own home. Who did she think these kids were? Did the husband just say he adopted some kids?

He'd told her that the daughter, who was in a sect or a drug addict or something like that, had left he children at their doorstep. Sick, isn't it.
