Siblings found chained to their beds begged for food after they were rescued from home in Parris, California.
Parents David Allen Turpin, 57, & Louise Anna Turpin, 49, were charged with torture and child endangerment.
It has since been revealed that the couple filed for bankruptcy in 2011 and owed upto $500,000 in debt.
David Turpin was earning $140,000 a year as an engineer for a defense contractor and wife stayed at home.
Some neighbors said they didn't know children lived there, while others compared the kids to vampires from Twilight because they looked so pale.
