The twins eventually knocked on the door of a woman who happened to be an intensive care nurse, who let them inside and called police. The boy was reportedly shirtless and the girl was wearing only a plastic grocery bag, according to a police affidavit obtained by ABC News.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe was shaking with her handcuffs,\u201d the woman reportedly told a Houston TV station, according to ABC News. \u201cShe was like, \u2018We are looking for help. We just need help. We just broke out of our handcuffs. Our mom had us handcuffed in the laundry room.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The woman photographed the twins\u2019 injuries and called police, saying the girl \u201cwas complaining that she couldn\u2019t even close her hand because her hand just felt so tight and swollen from her trying to tug and pull off the handcuffs.\u201d The woman also gave them food and wrapped them in blankets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were so skinny and so frail. They just looked like they had been through a lot,\u201d the woman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.khou.com\/article\/news\/crime\/cypress-child-abuse-arrest-amber-alert\/285-3158f93b-664b-498e-814d-d60376d89bc4\">told<\/a> KHOU. \u201cThey told me that their mom kept them locked in the laundry room, naked, zip tied from the ankles and handcuffed from the wrist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The twins were severely malnourished and told police that they had been abused for months by their mother, who they said handcuffed them in the laundry room of their house and forced them to drink bleach and other cleaners \u201cif they talked too much,\u201d the police affidavit said. The twins also told police that they were forced to drink urine and eat feces.<\/p>\n<p>Further, the twins said they weren\u2019t allowed to use the bathroom and were surrounded by feces in the laundry room where they were kept. Both twins had bruises, cuts, and scars all over their bodies, and the boy had at least one fractured bone that had healed on its own, KHOU reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey would only feed them a sandwich, only if they were quiet the whole day, if they made any type of noise they wouldn\u2019t be fed,\u201d the woman who helped them told KHOU. \u201cHow a mother could do this to her kids and\u2026 I feel like my tears are out of frustration, anger and sadness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The twins\u2019 mother, 40-year-old Zaikiya Duncan, was arrested in Louisiana hours after the teens sought help. Police had issued a missing children alert for five other children, leading to her capture. Only one child was with Duncan when she was arrested; the other four were in Louisiana with relatives. All seven children are in Child Protective Service custody.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Duncan, her live-in boyfriend, 27 year-old Jova Terrell, was also arrested. Neither has been formally charged, but both face assault charges.<\/p>\n<p>Duncan had been previously arrested and charged for child abuse 10 years earlier, when a 5-year-old child of hers was treated for burns, which were determined to be from hot water. The child also had bruises all over his back. Court documents from then also note that police found a 20-month-old child at her home with bound hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two 16-year-old twins escaped a house of horrors in Texas where they and their siblings were handcuffed and forced to drink bleach and urine, among other abuses.
