Just a couple from the headlines of this weeks news:
http://www.indystar.com/story/news/crime/2014/09/09/southern-indiana-man-charged-forcing-wife-sex-slave/15329271/The relationship started with personal ads on Craigslist.
Kenneth Harden's post sounded sweet, talking about being a single father and having trouble meeting women.
It caught the eye of a divorcee looking for a Godly man who wanted a woman to stay home and take care of the house and kids.
Harden responded to the woman's ad, and they talked about what the Bible meant to them. She was quickly swept off her feet.
Not long after they met, the pair married and moved to Brown County.
But the woman, according to court records, soon learned that Harden was not the Christian man he claimed to be in the personal ad. Instead, he proved to be a manipulative sadist who forced her to sign a sex-slave contract, publicly humiliated and brutally abused her physically and sexually for nearly a year.

The woman kept in a cage for two months was raped so that the couple holding her captive could force her to have a baby, says the man who rescued her.
The possible motive for Joelle Lockwood's capture emerged as the two suspects were charged with rape, criminal confinement, kidnapping and other felonies in an Indiana court.
They have been identified as Kendra Tooley, 44, and her boyfriend, Ricky Roy House Jr, 37.
"The whole time they were talking about a baby," said Ron Higgs, who is Tooley's ex-husband and was shocked to find the captive when he paid a visit to the couple last week.
He freed her on Saturday and police moved in to arrest the couple at the weekend.
Mr Higgs quoted the couple as telling him: "She's not leaving here until she has the baby. I'm not selling her. You're not taking her. You’re not doing nothing."
According to Mr Higgs, Ms Lockwood told him she was being raped.
