Matthew Edmonson and her husband, Charles Edmonson, now face 31 charges. Their 20-year-old son, Bailey Edmonson, now faces similar charges. Law&Crime's Angenette Levy has body camera footage of the arrests and details about the new charges in this episode of Crime Fix — a daily show covering the biggest stories in crime.

It sickens me when these abusers shed all those tears when being arrested but not one tear shed while they were abusing their victims!

[Sam-xczm]

What court would allow these people to adopt.

[lawiwis]

A 4 year old boy saved his months old baby sister by telling authorities their parents were beating her and hurting her. This grown man has no excuse doing this to those poor kids😤

[lorrainekelleher]

Look at that well manicured lawn, the hanging flower basket. You never know who you're living next to, horrors of all horrors.

[ravenheaven]

He wasn't cryig because of what he had done, he was crying because he got caught. PERIOD!

[breezymama]

Saddest part of everything, this happens 24/7 around the world. Pray EVERY DAY for ALL children.

[Kay-nguk]

How are these people allowed to adopt children? Is there no follow up afterwards????
These people never need to get out of prison!!!!

[stacy]

Stop giving predators light sentences and parole.

[JohnGeometresMaximos]

Let us not forget that the System handed over the children to them. 😬 Are there no criteria? No check(s) they need to pass?
How did these people manage to get approval to adopt children - especially five of them with special needs?

[shelleygreene]

I will NEVER understand monsters like this...Sick SICK people!!

[a.nhonig]

There are so many of these cases. The system is broken. These children are not being protected. Just disgusting.

[insanadee]

These children were seen by medical professionals who allowed the parents to "explain away" the multiple injuries and never reported them. It's disgusting and unimaginable. 😠

[kathyboyce]

CPS Services need to be charged with total negligence of those poor tortured children !!! 😮😮😮

[madolyn]

This has been going on in the foster care/adoption system America has had set up for decades. This is a massive problem that is STILL being turned a blind eye to no matter how many stories are reported on. The foster care system & adoption process needs to be absolutely FIXED, MAJORLY.

[JbirdL]

The 20 year old grew up in an abusive nightmare, what did they expect.

[ulexite-tv]

These cases of adoption and foster abuse are so frequent that i would like to see a one-hour documentary on the range of them -- including how they were discovered, arrests, charges, sentencing, and what the state child protection services are doing to prevent this.

[PeaceIsBetter]

Who signs off on giving these monsters children? Is anyone accountable for this? Fine, they'll go to prison, but whoever allowed this to happen should be locked up for a very long time. If they're not then everything going on here is a joke.

[LoriL]

It makes you wonder what their own son, who was born a female, went through in their own childhood growing up and the grooming that took place. This whole thing makes my heart hurt. Those poor little children.

[beasleyben]

After reading this... " The children have been in and out of the hospital for various reasons, such as bruising, bleach burns, potential internal bleeding, and failure to thrive, all of which prosecutors said were explained away by their parents." There needs to be an investigation into how these monsters got away with this? These children were failed!! Shame on the system and people involved!! Shame on them for not doing better for thes innocent children!!

[southernshel]

So sad. These people are profiting off of taking these kids supposedly to care for them. Only to take the money and abuse them. It's disgusting and deplorable.
