This week, Kelsie walks us through a case that rocked the entire world, Josef Fritzl. Elisabeth Fritzl was only 16 years old when her father coerced her into the basement of their home and locked her in there for 24 years. For those 24 years, Elisabeth went through brutal torture and gave birth to seven children, all fathered by her own father. In 2008 the Fritzl's family's world changed forever when Elisabeth and her children were freed.
