RIVERSIDE, Calif. — Three members of a foster family have pleaded guilty to abusing children, including several who previously were tortured<\/a> by their parents in a Southern California home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Press-Enterprise reports<\/a> that Marcelino Olguin pleaded guilty Thursday to multiple counts of lewd acts on a child in addition to false imprisonment and injuring a child. His attorney, Paul Grech, said he entered the pleas in Superior Court in Riverside to bring closure to his family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olguin’s wife Rosa and daughter Lennys pleaded guilty to child cruelty, false imprisonment and other charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 18<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Authorities said the Olguins forced children in their care to eat their own vomit and sit alone for hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the children they cared for were six members of the Turpin family, who were placed with the Olguins after being rescued from horribly abusive conditions in their parents’ home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The parents, David and Louise Turpin, pleaded guilty<\/a> in 2019 to torture and years of abuse that included shackling some of their 13 children and starving them. The couple was arrested after their 17-year-old daughter escaped and called 911 in the city of Perris, about 60 miles (100 kilometers) southeast of Los Angeles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
