William Zulock, 34, and Zachary Zulock, 36, were sentenced to 100 years in prison without the possibility of parole for sexually abusing their two adopted sons, aged 9 and 11, in Walton County, Georgia. The couple pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including aggravated sodomy and sexual exploitation of children. Prosecutors described their home as a 'house of horrors,' where the abuse occurred over several years, involving the production of child pornography and the trafficking of the boys to other individuals. The case has drawn widespread attention due to the horrific nature of the crimes and the couple's previous public image as a picture-perfect family. The sentencing took place in December 2024, and both defendants are expected to serve their full sentences.
