The start of Elizabeth's horrific sojourn in the underground basement

After drugging her, it is reported that the evil father chained Elizabeth's arms behind her back so she could only move by the sides of the bed.

To cover up his nefarious act, Josef told his wife, Rosemarie, that Elizabeth had run away to join a cult. A cooked-up story he maintained to policemen who were searching for the missing girl.

Josef r*ped Elizabeth the next day and forced the young girl into performing degrading acts. He would beat and kick her as well as force the girl to recreate scenes from violent p*rn films.

True Crime Recaps reports that Josef r*ped Elizabeth severally, sometimes doing it more than once in a day.

The cunning father would each time package the newborns and put them in front of their house with the explanation that his daughter had sent them to be taken care of by her parents as she couldn't leave the cult.

His co*ck and bull story was believed by all and sundry because he was a well-respected personality in the community.

Eventually, a serious kidney challenge to one of the kids underground was what raised suspicion.

The kid, aged 19, was taken to the hospital for the first time.

Josef evil acts would later be uncovered and Elizabeth, as well as the kids, were rescued, with the evil father now serving a life sentence in an Austrian prison facility.
