City Sued in House of Horrors Case


In the summer of 2011, Philly was rocked by the “House of Horrors” case that saw Linda Weston arrested and charged with numerous crimes relating to the four mentally-handicapped adults she allegedly kept locked in a Tacony basement. On Monday, Weston’s niece Beatrice filed a lawsuit against her aunt, the City of Philadelphia, and two employees over her placement with Weston. Beatrice Weston has previously testified that her aunt abused her and forced her into prostitution. [CBS 3]
