Inside the ‘world’s most inbred family’ living on sinister ‘incest farm’ run by sick paedophile leader
THE WORLD’S most inbred family lived in the Australian outback for decades, before their disgusting ways were discovered.
The family avoided detection by police by moving across Australia, until police found them in 2012 – uncovering their sick incestuous activities dating back decades.
The alarm was only raised when one of the family’s children, who didn’t attend school, was noticed to be severely malnourished and “couldn’t speak intelligibly”.
Then, Frank Colt was accused of sexually abusing his half-sister and niece – the same individual, called Petra Colt.
Brave Petra testified in court against her convoluted family, and said she “lived in a cult where all my aunts, uncles and cousins have been sleeping together”.
Data published by the Children’s Court in Australia, reveals how patriarch Tim Colt fathered seven children – five girls and two boys – with wife June.
Sickeningly, June was also Tim’s sister – making the family lineage of incest stretch back to the 1960s.
The patriarch began expanding his family when he had sex with and impregnated three of his daughters.
The sickening activity continued for multiple generations, with cousins, brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts all sleeping with each other.
Children in the family began having noticeable issues, including facial asymmetry and premature aging.
The 38-member family lived in squalor, where children were neglected, animals abused and sickening incest happened often.
Children of the family were forced to sleep on paper thin mattresses inside tents, and regularly were raped by family members.
In a statement during the trial, inspector Stephen Radford described smelling urine and faeces in living areas and said there were no toilets or showers on the “commune-style living arrangement”.
In one instance, a brother and sister in the family had four children together on the remote farm.
The family also kept animals on their property, some of which were abused and mutilated by the children.
Their family tree shows there were four known generations who were living together, including four kids who were the great-grandchildren and grandchildren of Tim Colt.
DNA testing discovered 11 of the children were the product of parents who were closely related to each another.
A dozen children found on the property were placed into state care in 2013 by a children’s court, which heard genetic evidence showed all but one of the children were the product of incest.
Family members have reportedly continued to reproduce – but none of the pregnancies have resulted in surviving children.
