    Goler clan child-abuse and incest prosecution

    The Goler family became nationally known after an investigation into allegations of prolonged physical, sexual, and psychological abuse of children within an isolated extended-family household. Sixteen people were charged in connection with hundreds of allegations, and thirteen ultimately received prison sentences. The case also prompted scrutiny of poverty, housing deprivation, child-protection failures, and the treatment of marginalized rural communities.
