John Caudle with his mother
This photo shows John Caudle with his mother from his mom's
Facebook page.
The victims
Tracy and Joanne Rinebarger, shown in a wedding photo, were John
Caudle's stepfather and mother.
Caudle told investigators his mother called him names and withheld
food to punish him. His maternal
grandmother told the interviewers her daughter isolated Caudle from
other kids. An undersheriff
called to the family home in 2006 said Caudle told him then that he
"was treated like a slave."
