A gay couple in Georgia has been arrested for allegedly sexually abusing their two adopted sons, who are brothers, and filming the abuse, according to NBC News.
William Dale Zulock, 32, and Zachary Jacoby Zulock, 35, were booked last month at the Walton County Jail on pending charges related to aggravated child molestation and sexual exploitation of children, officials at the Walton County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO) said, according to NBC.
Both men were “engaging in sexually abusive acts and video documenting the abuse,” the sheriff’s office said, according to the outlet.
The couple’s home was raided on July 27, hours after authorities were tipped off by a third suspect who was allegedly downloading child sexual abuse material, NBC reported.
The suspect said someone else “was producing homemade child sexual abuse material with at least one child who lived in the home with the perpetrator,” the WCSO reportedly said.
Detectives were able to execute a search warrant and found evidence of the crimes, according to WSB-TV Atlanta.
“A small team was dedicated to moving directly to the children to ensure their safety while a team engaged with the adults in the home, securing the scene,” the WCSO said, according to NBC.
“During the execution of the search warrant, evidence that both adult males — the adoptive fathers of the sibling pair residing in the home — were engaging in sexually abusive acts and video documenting this abuse,” the office added.
According to WSB-TV, the suspects’ home now has a sign on the front door that reads, “Do Not Enter, Property Of The Walton County Sheriff’s Office.”
A neighbor told the news station that such alleged crimes are not “tolerated” in the area, adding that he was happy authorities are dealing with the matter.
The report noted that William and Zachary Zulock had been intentionally separated at different jails as the investigation is ongoing.
Walton County’s Division of Family and Child Services is currently looking to find a compassionate home for the two young male victims.
The Daily Wire reached out to the WCSO about the matter but did not immediately hear back.
