Ohio Man Held Family Hostage

According to Ohio police, 47-year-old Jeffrey York held his family hostage, cutting them off from the rest of world and sexually assaulting one of daughters. Officials began investigating York in December. York allegedly locked one child in a small room for a year, only permitting him leave to use the bathroom. "In general, meals were brought to this child. Access to clothing, the restroom and everything was restricted by Mr. York," said Detective Dan Boerner. "The children who were of age for education were home-schooled for the most part, had no friends to speak of and no real outlets or resources to go to." A grand jury indicted on two counts of rape involving a female under the age of 13, five instances of gross sexual imposition, and six counts of child endangering.
