## Resource

A father accused of horrific child neglect in Ohio’s “House of Horrors” case is now asking a judge to determine if he’s mentally fit to stand trial. His lawyer filed a motion demanding a mental evaluation before any legal proceedings continue. The case erupted in June when authorities raided his home in Vinton County, uncovering 16 children—including toddlers and teens—living in unspeakable filth, many suffering from developmental delays and needing urgent medical care. Gary Siders Junior faces 16 felony child endangerment charges and four misdemeanor public indecency counts, all while pleading not guilty and held on a $300,000 bond. All 16 children remain in state custody, receiving critical medical and psychological support, with emergency funds allocated for their recovery. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities focused on justice and the children’s well-being above all. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
