Georgia, U.S. – A gay couple William and Zachary Zulock, 34 and 36, have been sentenced to 100 years in prison for raping their adopted male kids.
According to the Walton County District Attorney’s office, the couple who were earlier convicted, were each sentenced last week to the same jail term (100 years) without the possibility of parole.
“These two Defendants truly created a house of horrors and put their extremely dark desires above everything and everyone else,” said District Attorney Randy McGinley, according to WSB-TV.
“However, the depth of the Defendants’ depravity, which is as deep as it gets, is not greater than the resolve of those that 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.
The boys — two brothers who are now 12 and 10 years old — were adopted from a Christian special-needs agency by the Zulocks.
According to the New York Post, the couple raised them under the guise of a happy home in an affluent Atlanta suburb.
But their supposedly picture-perfect life — Zachary worked in banking and William was a government employee — held a dark secret.
The couple regularly forced the boys to have sex with them and would film the abuse to make paedophilic pornography.
Evidence showed they even bragged about the abuse to twisted friends, with one telling police Zachary once sent a Snapchat message reading “I’m going to f–k my son tonight. Stand by,” along with images of the boy being abused.
And they allegedly used social media to pimp the boys out to at least two men in a depraved local paedophile sex ring.
The couple was arrested in 2022 after an alleged member of the ring was caught downloading child porn, and he told the investigators how the Zulocks were making porn with young boys living in their house.
Both Zulocks plead guilty to charges of aggravated child molestation, aggravated sodomy, and sexual exploitation of children.
