A Florida past entrusted with the care of five children made them urinate and defecate into a bucket and starved them while feeding her own child well, police said.

59-year-old Gwendolyn Denise Rolle took in the children after their father left town, according to the Fort Pierce Police Dept. The children were ages 4 to 9 years old, and two of them were nonverbal.

The school also gave the children perfume so that they wouldn't be bullied at school over the smell.

WPEC-TV reported that police were tipped off to the conditions at the home by an anonymous report.

Rolle allegedly locked the children out of her master suite in the Fort Pierce home, which cut off their access to the only functioning toilet.

The other toilet was in a bathroom filled with feces, forcing the children to defecate in a blue-green bucket that neighbors said they saw being emptied by the children.

Without access to a shower, the children also had to shower outside with a garden hose as they held a bedsheet to provide some privacy.

Rolle would starve the children but feed her own child fast food, according to police. The children were forced to share single packets of ramen or go to bed hungry.

One of the children smelled so strongly of fecal matter that a school official reported that a teacher had to spray the classroom with air freshener. The school also gave the children perfume so that they wouldn't be bullied at school over the smell.

Rolle allegedly abused them regularly with slaps to the face, and she would call them "bastards."

Police reported that one of the nonverbal children was kept from school to conceal a bruise he got from the abuse.

She allegedly whispered a threat to the children as they stood on the home's porch: "Once he leaves, you're gonna get it."

Police said neighbors were afraid to report Rolle because of the standing she had in the community as a pastor.

Rolle faces five felony counts of child neglect without great bodily harm.

WPEC reported that Rolle had bonded out of jail and nobody responded when a reporter knocked on the door of her home.

Texas cops investigating odor at home believed someone died inside — they found 2 children living in horrific conditions

Texas police officers said a home "smelled like death" when they were called to investigate after being alerted about the foul odor.

Inside they found two young children sitting in a bathtub halfway filled with dirty water and the home buried with feces, garbage, and maggots, according to an affidavit.

Police said the children smelled like 'urine, feces, body odor, and stagnant water.' The children said they didn't know how to read or write and had never been to school.

Officers from the Temple Police Department said they were called to the home on Young Avenue on May 20 after a caller reported the odor and no sign of the residents.

They knocked on the doors and windows, but no one responded. Then they noted flies at the windows, which led them to believe someone had died inside.

Police made entry into the home and found 34-year-old Michael Robbins and 68-year-old John Robbins coming to the door.

They inspected the home and said every surface was filled with garbage, rodent and mouse droppings, rotting food, and maggots.

Then they found the two children.

The 8- and 10-year-old children had matted hair that was apparently infested with bugs. When they were told to get dressed, they returned in foul-smelling clothing with food stains.

Police said the children smelled like "urine, feces, body odor, and stagnant water." The children said they didn't know how to read or write and had never been to school.

One of the children had their adult teeth growing rotten in their mouth, an affidavit said.

Police determined that the men were not providing food for the children and that they were forced to fend for themselves.

The children were transported to McClane's Children's Hospital for treatment.

Neighbors told police they had not seen the children in years.

Both men were booked into the Bell County Jail on charges of abandoning or endangering a child with intent. They each have a bond of $60,000.

Temple is a city of about 82,000 residents located 80 miles north of Austin in central Texas.

REVIEW: ‘Uncanny’ Michael Jackson biopic moonwalks past controversy

The Michael Jackson biopic is finally here, and it’s already smashing records after a $217.4 million worldwide opening — which is the biggest of all time for a biopic.

“You think you’re watching Michael Jackson. You forget that’s not Michael,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray comments on “Pat Gray Unleashed.”

“It’s uncanny,” he adds.

And while there have famously been allegations of child abuse at the hands of Jackson, the biopic didn’t cover them.

“His estate was sued again ... some more sexual abuse allegations. But the lawsuit is from that Cascio family who, they settled, but they claimed that the settlement was breached and broken,” Jeff Fisher explains, pointing out that the family initially claimed Jackson did nothing wrong but later changed their tune.

“It was really bizarre,” he says.

“I’ve always gone back and forth on that, but they don’t deal with it in the movie. I mean, they might in the future. I don’t know, because at the end of it, it says, ‘His story continues,’” Gray comments.

“So I don’t know if [the biopic] gives away too much, but it takes you up to 1988,” he adds, pointing out that this was before the allegations of child abuse.

“His story will continue,” executive producer Keith Malinak adds.

'There is no mama': Two homosexuals taunt surrogate baby crying for his mother: VIDEO

The horror of the surrogacy trend reared its head again this week.

An Instagram video posted by gay musician Shane McAnally has triggered the ire of many conservatives and viewers alike.

'The most horrifying video I've ever seen in my life.'

Posted earlier this week, the video shows a man, presumably either McAnally or his "husband," Michael Baum, holding their adopted third child, Texson, whom they recently brought into the family after taking him from his mother after she gave birth.

"Who do you want, Dada or Pop?" the man asks the baby repeatedly over the course of the video.

The baby can be heard making noises that sound remarkably like "mama" and "mom" throughout the video.

The man holding the baby feigns shock when the infant cries out for his mother, saying, "No way, Jose," to the baby.

The baby, who according to People was born in late October 2025 and immediately turned over to the homosexual couple, begins to cry at this point in the video, visibly upset.

The man in the video and the man holding the camera both begin to laugh at the baby while he cries harder and harder for his "mama."

"There is no mama. I'm so sorry. You have Dada and Pop," the man in the video says.

"No mama," he repeats as the baby cries.

The Daily Wire's Michael Knowles described this video as "the most horrifying video I've ever seen in my life."

Instagram users seemed to have experienced the same revulsion Knowles did.

"This is why it’s important to remember that it’s a child’s right to have parents- and not a[n] adult’s right to have children," one user said.

Another said, "That's not funny. Someone please save this baby :(."

"People go to therapy for the trauma that’s caused when they grow up with an absent mother. Why are adults trying to get children to meet their needs when it was always supposed to be the other way around?" a third commenter added to the post.

McAnally has repeatedly mocked his child as the "homophobic baby" in other posts on his page.

For example, a video posted in December shows a 6-week-old Texson smiling as the man holding the camera tells him about his brother, sister, and two puppies. He then says, "And two dads." Texson stops smiling and appears to furrow his brow at this moment.

According to People, McAnally and Baum were "married' in 2012. They have another son and a daughter, named Dash and Dylan, respectively.

Media, 29 Federal Judges Freak Out Over Rude Words In Dissent Attacking Trans Child Abuse

Federal courts have done the worst damage to themselves with a century of outrageous and abusive rulings like this one from the Ninth Circuit.

Tim Tebow shows disturbing map of the child sexual abuse material epidemic on US soil

Former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow presented U.S. senators with a disturbing map, revealing 338,000 U.S. IP addresses allegedly distributing child sexual abuse material.

Tebow testified on Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Crime and Counterterrorism, which held a hearing about confronting child trafficking.

'This is a fight of good vs. evil, and we are losing.'

Tebow, the chairman and founder of the Tim Tebow Foundation, explained to lawmakers that he attended a meeting in Lyons, France, in 2023 alongside experts in victim identification, and they determined that there were more than 57,000 abused and unidentified children who appeared in multiple images.

Just two years later, that number has grown to over 89,000, Tebow stated, citing INTERPOL's database.

Tebow's map was blanketed with a sea of red pins, each marking the location of an alleged offender. Also indicated on the map were blue pins, showing the locations of open law enforcement investigations; however, those markings were few and far between.

"There's a red dot map right over there over my right shoulder," he told lawmakers. "That's just a six-month screenshot of the U.S., and every red dot that is on there is someone that is downloading, sharing, or distributing child rape images, almost all under the age of 12."

He described the map as showing over 338,000 red pins, adding that an estimated 55% to 85% of those are also alleged "hands-on offenders."

While pointing to the map, Tebow stated, "If you could also look, there's blue dots on there. You can't really see them, but the blue ones are the ones that are under investigation."

Tebow's written testimony noted that the map was based on Justice Department and Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force Program data.

"We have to do a whole lot more, and we have to do it faster because every day we wait, they're suffering. They're crying. And I believe right now many of them are praying that we would respond," Tebow told lawmakers. "The question is, will we actually accept the responsibility of caring for these boys and girls and truly protecting them, or are we just going to continue to talk about it?"

During the hearing, Tebow noted that it is nearly impossible to estimate how many children are being abused and have yet to be identified.

"That's just one database," he said. "So, one of the things that we would ask and plead this committee to work on is an international treaty of getting all of the different databases to work together to deconflict so we actually get a ground truth on what the number is."

He stated that Homeland Security Investigations, the FBI, Canada, Australia, and INTERPOL each maintain separate databases.

Subcommittee Chairman Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) shared data from INTERPOL, which estimated that of the images of unidentified and exploited children, 60% were victims under 12, and 4.3% were infants.

Tebow advocated the passage of the bipartisan Renewed Hope Act of 2026, highlighting that it would allow the Secretary of Homeland Security to hire 200 more victim identification specialists and child exploitation investigators. He pointed out that currently, there are only 10 such specialists.

"Law enforcement needs more resources, more support ... a bigger rescue team," Tebow wrote in a post on social media. "This is a fight of good vs. evil, and we are losing."

Florida HS staffer, 49, initially fights female student in self-defense — but soon crosses way over the line, cops say

Police said a 49-year-old staff member at a Florida high school initially acted in self-defense amid a physical fight with a female student on a bus earlier this week — but cops added that the staffer soon took things well over the line.

According to a report from the Palm Beach School District Police, the incident occurred Tuesday at William T. Dwyer High School around 2:50 p.m., which is around dismissal time, WPBF-TV reported.

'Ms. Smith has been removed from our campus and will not return, pending the outcome of an investigation.'

A school bus driver requested the removal of an unruly student on the bus, the station said.

Shaundra Smith, a school district employee, responded and boarded the bus to speak with the student, the station said.

A short time later, WPBF said Smith asked for additional staff support and two police officers to board the bus to remove the student.

An officer observed Smith and the student throwing punches at each other, the station said, adding that officers and school administrators grabbed the student to separate her from Smith.

WPBF, citing the police report, said Smith got on a bus seat and punched the student in the face as police were restraining the student’s arms.

The station said an officer told Smith to stop, but Smith allegedly punched the student two more times.

WPBF said the officer eventually pulled Smith away from the student.

The police report notes the female student suffered cuts to the inside of her lip and a scrape on her left collarbone, the station said.

Class Dismissed

When Stefan Merrill Block is about 12 years old, his paternal grandmother, Mimi, comes to visit his family in Texas. "The boy should be in school," the elderly Jewish woman tells his mother. "It's a Thursday! A boy on Thursday should be in a school learning a thing. He needs the—what do they call it? The curriculum." Stefan's mother, who made the decision to homeschool her younger son for five years starting in elementary school, tells Mimi, "Actually, the new theory in education is that what matters most is teaching a child to love to learn, to let them follow their interests."

Surrogacy 'trafficking'? Unmarried Chinese couple in the US accused of massive baby scam — 21 kids placed in foster care

A California-based, unmarried Chinese couple is under scrutiny for allegedly running a massive surrogacy fraud operation that deceived potentially dozens of American women and placed 21 young children in questionable circumstances.

Guojun Xuan, 65, and his partner, Silvia Zhang, 38, were arrested on suspicion of child abuse in May, then released on bond pending further investigation, NBC News reported. Their brief arrests were sparked by hospital staff’s reports of child abuse after their 2-month-old son sustained traumatic head injuries.

'What you did — and what you continue to do by staying silent — is foul, reckless, and cruel.'

Video evidence obtained by the Arcadia Police Department allegedly revealed that the children in Xuan and Zhang’s care “were subjected to physical and emotional abuse” by nannies, abuse that authorities suspected the couple knew “was occurring and let ... happen.” The footage allegedly showed a 56-year-old nanny violently shaking and striking the 2-month-old child.

Authorities found 15 children in Xuan and Zhang’s nine-bedroom home and another six children staying with the couple’s friends. The 21 children, who ranged from 2 months to 13 years old, were placed and remain in foster care.

It is unclear how many children were born through surrogacy. The couple is believed to have one child together naturally, and Xuan is believed to be the biological father of a 13-year-old daughter.

Surrogate mothers claimed they were told the couple had either no children or only one child and were seeking surrogates after failed in vitro fertilization attempts. They also alleged that they were not made aware that Xuan and Zhang controlled the surrogacy agency representing them.

Surrogates told the Wall Street Journal in August that they had been in contact with federal agents, who informed them they were investigating whether the couple was selling children.

“We never sell our babies,” Zhang told the WSJ. “We take care of them very well.”

Several surrogate mothers are fighting for custody of the children they carried for the couple. Xuan and Zhang have filed lawsuits against at least two surrogates who ended contact with them before giving birth last fall, claiming a breach of contract.

Kayla Elliott, a surrogate mother, told NBC News in July that she was led to believe she was helping a couple struggling to conceive and was unaware that they had many other children. Elliott is fighting to obtain custody of the child, telling NewsNation that she suspects “there’s some type of trafficking going on.”

Tronderrica James, 30, another surrogate, filed a lawsuit against the couple, arguing that they gave misleading and false information about their intentions.

James stated that she was contacted by an individual named Jasmine in 2023, who described the couple as “longing for their miracle baby,” according to court documents. Jasmine allegedly claimed the couple could not speak with James directly because of “a language barrier.”

In an email to Xuan and Zhang, James wrote, “You gambled with my life. You gambled with the life of a child. You misled me, misrepresented your role, and may have broken multiple state and federal laws in the process — and you still haven’t had the decency to provide a single truthful explanation.”

“What you did — and what you continue to do by staying silent — is foul, reckless, and cruel,” James stated.

Xuan and Zhang reportedly remain under investigation. No criminal charges have been filed.

In the past six months, the couple has had another five babies born to surrogate mothers, the New York Post reported.

Xuan and Zhang have denied any wrongdoing, claiming that they just wanted to have a large family.

The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office told Blaze News that the matter remains under review by the Arcadia Police Department.

The FBI declined comment.

Xuan, Zhang, James, and the Arcadia Police Department did not respond to a request for comment.
