The sister of a girl who was allegedly molested and impregnated four times by their father, says she waited until she turned 18 to come forward because she was afraid of being placed in state custody.

“My dad was doing all this crazy stuff,” the 18-year-old told The Associated Press, in an interview, Thursday. “I got fed up with it until I finally ran my mouth. … I couldn’t see my sister suffer anymore. That’s why I wanted her out.” She said her sister, now 19, was 13 when their father started molesting her. The 18-year-old said her sibling confided in her about the abuse after becoming pregnant the first time.

“But I already knew,” she said. The 18-year-old told police in October, that her sister was being molested by their father and had given birth to four of his children. The tip led to a search of a rural property in Harrisonville, where the family used to live. The property’s new owners found two sealed coolers with the remains of two infants on 1 January.

Authorities said one of those infants died after not receiving medical treatment for pneumonia. The 47-year-old father has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of that baby, who was born in November, 2006. He also is accused of fathering the other infant whose body was found in the coolers, and investigators said they were looking into the circumstances of that baby’s death.

Authorities believe a third baby, born in 2004, has been buried in Oklahoma, where the family once lived. A fourth child, now a 3-year-old boy, is in state custody. In addition to the murder charge, the father also was charged with endangering the welfare of a child, statutory rape and two counts each of incest and abandoning a corpse. He was being held in the Cass County jail in lieu of a $500,000 bond.

The suspect’s wife, also 47, has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child because authorities claimed she did little to stop her daughter’s sexual abuse. She was free on bond and due in court next week, for a case review. The Associated Press is withholding the names of the suspects and other family members to protect the identity of the daughter, an alleged sexual assault victim.

A cousin of the suspect’s four daughters said the girls were afraid of their father and that’s why none of them sought help sooner. “He threatened to kill them if they ever said anything,” she said, Thursday. “They were petrified.” Janeal Matheson, the public defender representing the man, declined to comment when reached by the AP on Thursday. No attorney was listed for the man’s wife in court records, and calls to multiple phone numbers for her went unanswered. A preliminary hearing for the father was scheduled for 5 March.

**osisi:

Leilah you've been on this forum for how long now?
about 2 years abi?
and each time you come up with very stupid questions that end up with the phrase "is is cultural"

What is cultural about irresponsibility ?
This is one man you're talking about.
You are the same girl who saturated Nairaland in 2007 and 2008 with several threads ranging from "how do I divorce my Nigerian husband" to "He gives me painful anal intercourse ".
And people were advising you what brands of lubricant to use
Is anal sex cultural ?
You better mind yourself and quit these your Nigerian man threads.

The best response you got so far came from TRooe and here it is below
Mind your own business and leave others alone especially when in this case the woman never complained to you.
Stay in your home and forget what's happening in your neighbor's

Never knew this girl had become a naija celebrity.
I went to school with this girl.
We were friends
I know the names of everyone in her family
This is unbelievable.
Ure was such a shy girl growing up
so this is how she ended up
an only daughter running around in immorality?
What a tragedy.

Ure, this is your bossom childhood friend practically in tears that you ended up like this
Jumping from man to man
What happened to the love of Christ we both confessed as teenagers?
Remember all the persecution from your dad when you became born again and we would pray about it.
I still remember our singing choruses and reading the Bible.
I still remember your beautiful smiles
I expected you to be happily married with Children to a good Christian man
Beautiful Ure
being bounced around like a football.
