Chapter 1632: The children of the Turbin family

Xiao Peng was at a loss. What is a "child of the Turbin family"? Why is Emilia so worried?
Seeing Xiao Peng puzzled, Emilia hurriedly told Xiao Peng the background of these children.
Since he is a child of the Turbin family, he is naturally named Turbin, who lives in Perlis, Riverside County, east of Los Angeles. There are 13 sisters in the family, the oldest is 29 years old and the youngest is only two years old. Their father is David Allen Turbin and their mother is Louise Anna Turbin.
It stands to reason that such parents should love children so much, but these two talents are true demons on earth.
From birth to now, these children rarely leave home, and are usually chained to the bed by their parents, preventing the children from sleeping normally.
It was until their 17-year-old daughter, Weah, crawled out of the window and escaped from the house while people were not paying attention.
And this was the first time she left home alone! An alarm call lasted for more than 20 minutes, because she didn't understand her home address at all! The 13 children in the family have almost no common sense of life due to years of abuse and confinement by their parents, and they do not know what a normal life should be like.
When the police arrived, they were also shocked. The house was filthy and smelly everywhere. The two children were chained to the furniture. This is the norm in their home to punish children. Almost all children can’t. Sleeping normally, going hungry, being beaten up and being handcuffed is normal.
Due to chronic malnutrition, when the police arrived, they saw a room of children who thought they were all minors. After a careful investigation, five of them were adults, and the oldest was 29 years old!
This incident caused a great uproar. Even the Star-Spangled Judicial system, which has always been known for its
kindness
, could not tolerate these two couples. After the two were arrested, they directly booked nine million dollars in bail for the two. People went bankrupt in 2011, which means that they couldn’t be released on bail. When the verdict was pronounced, there was no hesitation. The jury passed the two guilty unanimously, which meant life imprisonment. Only after 25 years of imprisonment can they be granted parole--- ---One of these two people is 58 years old and the other is 50 years old. Can they live until that day?
But even though these two demons went to jail, the children left behind are indeed a big problem: these children don't know what a normal life should be like, and they don't have any common sense of life. They can only rely on willpower to regain their normal lives step by step, and some even go to university.
But as far as their situation is concerned, if they want to integrate into a normal society, it can't be described as ‘difficult’: they can’t communicate with outsiders, can’t work, or even say it’s awkward, and they have to learn how to cross the road again!
But Bell did a good thing: he asked the children of the Turbin family to come to the Los Angeles Police Department to wipe the police car at the Los Angeles Police Department. Every five dollars for each car would not hold the police car. Children can also make a good profit to supplement the family.
In fact, this is a mutually beneficial business. When we watch Hollywood movies, we will find that Star Stripe people like washing cars by themselves. To be precise, they do not like washing themselves, but because they save money.
Car wash in the Star-Tangled Country, just casually wash the ordinary whole car, usually 10-12 US dollars, if you are more careful about "SUPERWASH"? Plus one dollar, if it is to clean inside and out once in all directions without dead ends? Then fifteen dollars will go up.
And that's not all, it's just the cost of washing the car. After washing the car, the car wash must be tipped at least five dollars, um, which means that one hundred and fifty yuan will be included in the car wash.
This is an ordinary car wash. There are also beauties wearing bikinis washing the car, so the cost is expensive. The money for a car wash is almost the same as watching a strip-dance. . . . . .
Therefore, it is really a win-win situation for the children of the Turbin family to come to the Los Angeles Police Department to clean the car: the child can make money, and the police department can save the car washing fee-the most important thing is, Bell can get a lot of good names. If Bell is going to be in politics, this is all fundamental.
Today, it was the first day these children came to wash the car, so so many reporters came here to cover all this.
This Bell will retire in two months, "the right not to expire and void", while buying a reputation for himself, this calculation is really good.
Xiao Peng looked at this reporter but felt a little aftertaste. Isn't this specifically for himself? How else would it be so coincidental, but come to wash the car today? Is it this time? I haven't seen anyone washing the car when I came here, but now it's fine, the reporter has come.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, it was all old fritters. . . . . .
But looking at Emilia's love overflowing, it's not a bad thing, it's not a bad thing, it's not a bad thing, it's not a bad thing that it's being used, it's being used.
"Tom, come here for a minute!" Director Bell waved to a child who was wiping the car.
The kid named ‘Tom’ ​​came over when he heard Director Bell’s greeting, but he was very cautious at first glance: "Sir, what's the matter?"
He didn't dare to look directly at Bell when he was speaking, but looked down at his toes. God knows what he has experienced.
Director Bell smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, Tom. Mr. Xiao, how old do you think he is?"
Xiao Peng listened to Bell’s question, and then took a closer look at Tom. He was wearing a jeans T-shirt, a pair of ordinary-looking sneakers, with a'Beatles' hairstyle, and he was as thin as a stick. Less than one meter seven.
"He is seventeen years old?" Xiao Peng is not sure of his answer: "Director Bell, you know, I have lived in China since I was a child, and I am really not very good at observing the faces of Westerners.
Guess the age. "
Director Bell replied: "He is 29 years old. He is the oldest child in the Turbin family and the one who has suffered the most. Due to chronic malnutrition, he is now like this. The most important thing is that you should be able to see Come out, he has serious psychological problems."
Xiao Peng nodded: "It is said that if I grew up in such a growth environment, I might have been crazy. Director Bell, can I do something for them? For example, how about giving them some money?"
After hearing this, Director Bell smiled and said: "Mr. Samuel has this heart is very good, in fact, I have been thinking about how to help them. If it is simply to give them money? It is not to help them, but to harm them. They do not have The ability to control a lot of money. What they need is learning, learning everything in this society, and the other point is how to solve their psychological problems. This is a long-term process, and the most important thing is: What should I do if the same problem occurs in the future? Sri Lanka is a small city with very good security. As a result, it took more than 20 years for such things to happen in such a place before being discovered. What will happen to the children in cities with poor security? And our protection for them is really far away. Far from enough!"
Xiao Peng looked at Director Bell and motioned for him to continue.
Director Bell said: "Now we are very inadequate in the protection of children. Those politicians only have a higher position in their eyes, and their attention is not focused on the protection of these victims. After the child, I thought that I should do something to change the status quo, so after thinking about it again and again, I decided to go into politics."
Xiao Peng nodded. Everyone had guessed his idea. As for those so-called ‘protecting children’ to a large extent his political slogans, the children of the Turbin family were his tools for show.
But Xiao Peng still supports him, which is a good thing. If he uses this reason to enter politics, he must do something about child protection. He can't just slap himself in the face like Apu, right?
Xiao Peng smiled: "Director Bell, you told me that so much should not be without purpose, right? What can I do for you?"
Director Bell said: "This is the case. I have formed my own campaign team to participate in the party campaign, but I first need to raise government-government-presentation-funds, so I am going to hold a fundraising party when I retire."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng not only complained, but wasn't Nima still asking for money? Can't you give the money to the child yourself, just give it to you?
The political-government-presentation-gold system of the Star-Stripe Nation is quite interesting. To put it bluntly, it is the cost of the candidate and his team going to various places to promote their political ideas, er, that is, advertising expenses.
When every candidate is campaigning, the first thing to do is to raise political-government-dedication-gold, which has nothing to do with the amount of money, but with the degree of support-you donate it means you will support me , Rich people like Arp, who are not bad for money, will desperately raise government-government-presentation money when participating in the presidential election.
Of course, this money is not for the candidates to spend randomly. It must be earmarked for special purposes. There is a special organization to review every cent of the expenses, and all expenses are like public disclosure.
The consequences of embezzling this money are very terrible. The Kentucky Senate David Lemaster became a prisoner for embezzling twenty dollars.
Giving him some money is actually indifferent. Such political-government-presentation-funds have nothing to do with how much it is. It is just an attitude. Donating a few dollars is considered a donation, but the most? At that time, the most political-government-presentation money received by Oguanhai in the presidential campaign was only 5 million US dollars, which was not enough for his own car purchase, but he really couldn’t let Xiao Peng participate in his fundraising party. promise.
"Director Bell, as far as I know, you will retire in two months, and I may leave the Star-Spangled Nation tomorrow, and you should know that I am a fisherman, and the next fishing season will be at sea. It will take a few months to stay. I won’t really be able to attend your fundraising reception by then. How would you like if I would give you money now?"
I don't know that Director Bell sweats down when he hears: "You give me money now? Didn't that send me to jail?"
