Fentress County, TN (WOKI) The case of a Fentress County mother and father accused of abusing their adopted children was moved to the grand jury Thursday, April 4.
Jessica and Jason Klimp are suspected of abusing two of their four adopted children. One of those children, who is 12 years old, reportedly appeared so malnourished in February that doctors initially thought she was six years old.
According to court records, the couple is also accused of making the two children sleep in totes in their home’s basement as punishment for wetting the bed.
The Klimps are charged with aggravated child abuse, neglect or endangerment.
The grand jury is slated to meet next on April 18.
