A grand jury has indicted a mother and father from Michigan accused of abusing their adopted children in Fentress County.

Authorities say Jessica and Jason Klimp allegedly abused two of their four adopted children. One of those children, who is 12 years old, reportedly appeared so malnourished in February 2024. Doctors initially thought she was six years old.

Jason Klimp reportedly claimed he pureed food for the two children, claiming they could not eat solid food. The couple allegedly made the two children sleep in totes in their home’s basement as punishment for wetting the bed.

The Klimps were indicted on six counts of aggravated child abuse and neglect.
