John Dollar, 58, and wife Linda, 51, who live about 70 miles north of Tampa, failed to appear at a scheduled Department of Children & Families
hearing Monday. They are wanted on felony charges of aggravated child abuse.
At least three children were severely malnourished, including twin 14-year-old brothers who weighed just 36 and 38 pounds each — about 80 pounds
below the normal weights for their age, police said.
The seven children were removed from the home last month after one of them called an ambulance for a 16-year-old boy who weighed less than 60 pounds
and had suspicious injuries on his head and neck. The doctors alerted authorities.

I don't understand what these people are thinking, it's bad enought that they are in a state of mind to hurt these children, but to also think that
they'll get away with it ?
I pray for the recovery of the kids.
