ANTIOCH, Calif. (KGO) — Six sisters from Antioch are suing the city, the county and their church. They’re accusing public and church officials of failing to respond to years of sexual abuse by their own parents.
The Dutro girls were four biological siblings and two cousins, all raised as sisters.
“Their story is unimaginable, but the scariest part is that it’s true,” the Dutro’s attorney Jason Runckel said.
The sisters are now adults looking back on what they say were 20 years, from the time they were toddlers, of sexual abuse by their parents.
The oldest daughter, Amber, who is now 32, told ABC7 News by phone, that those they turned to for help ignored them.
