A real evil stepmother: Man sets fire to escape after 20 years of captivity

On the night of Feb. 17, police and fire departments in a Connecticut city rushed to Kimberly Sullivan’s home to put out the flames. Inside, they discovered a house in disarray, and rescued her adult stepson, who appeared emaciated and missing most of his teeth. The man claimed he had been held captive for 20 years and that he set the fire himself in order to escape her house of horrors.
