A Walton County court has imposed a 100-year sentence on a gay couple William and Zachary Zulock, residents of Georgia, United States of America, for sexually abusing their adopted sons without the possibility of parole.
The convicts reportedly adopted the boys ( now 12 and 10 years old) from a Christian special-needs agency and lived in an Atlanta suburb.
Zachary worked in the banking sector while William was a government employee.
The abuse reportedly involved forcing the children into sexual acts and creating pornographic videos.
Evidence revealed that Zulocks shared details of the abuse with others, with one instance involving Zachary sending a Snapchat message saying, “I’m going to f–k my son tonight. Stand by,” along with images of the abuse.
Reports said that the gay couple’s crimes became known after a member of a local pedophile ring was caught downloading child pornography.
The arrested suspect revealed the Zulocks’ involvement in producing child pornography with their adopted sons.
During their trial, both men pleaded guilty to aggravated child molestation, aggravated sodomy, and sexual exploitation of children.
The District Attorney Randy McGinley said: “These two defendants truly created a house of horrors and put their extremely dark desires above everything and everyone else.
“However, the depth of the defendants’ depravity, which is as deep as it gets, is not greater than the resolve of those who fought for justice and the strength of the victims in this case.
“The resolve I have seen from these two young victims over the last two years is truly inspiring,” he added.
