Couple Accused of “Gifting” Their Daughter Sentenced
A Pennsylvania couple sentenced for giving their daughter away to a man who sexually abused her other girls.
FOX’s Lilian Woo reports:
Daniel and Savilla Stoltzfus getting sentenced by a Pennsylvania judge up to seven years in prison for what they called gifting their oldest daughter to a man who helped them out financially.
The man they sent the girl to Lee Donald Kaplan fathered two kids with her, the first conceived when she was 14-years-old.
Prosecutors say the couple allowed him to have sex with six of their nine daughters in return for financial support.
The girls mother has said she and her family viewed Kaplan as a prophet and the prosecutor says Savilla’s own husband gifted her to Kaplan in hopes of strengthening their bloodlines.
Kaplan has been convicted on all 17 counts of child sexual assault and other offenses last month.
