Jeanne Kay Whitefeather denies wrongdoing, claiming a shed where adopted children were kept was just a "teenager hangout."
Jeanne Kay Whitefeather denies locking her adopted teenage children in a shed during her trial in West Virginia. She and her husband, Donald Ray Lantz, face over a dozen felony charges, including forced labor and human trafficking, after neighbors reported seeing the couple lock two of their adopted children in the shed. The five adopted children, who are all Black, were placed under Child Protective Services after the couple's arrest in October 2023. Whitefeather claims the shed was a "teenager hangout" where the children could come and go freely.
