Klara Mauerova, 31, and her sister Katerina, 33, from the Czech Republic, both liked to talk about how they were destined to fulfill a mission in their lives for God. Klara had two sons, Ondrej, 8, and Jakub, 9, but pretty much raised them alone as the father of the boys left Klara due to her strange behavior and beliefs. In the beginning no one ever worried about Klara’s capability of being a good mother, and was seen as very motherly and always taking proper care of the boys. But that all changed after a new child came into the picture, Annika. The two sisters also took part in a Cult named “The Grail Movement,” where members believed that they could get into heaven by simply doing good deeds, but they also believed that they were completely absolved to commit crimes. When Katerina came to visit Klara and her nephews, she brought along a 13 year old girl named Annika, a Norwegian orphan. Klara started to accept Annika into her family and caring for her as her own child. However, Katerina refused to let Klara take her to any of her hospital visits, and would only let her communicate with Annika through the phone, where most of the time Annika was actually unconscious. Klara started to pay less attention to her sons in 2006, and were mainly looked after by their grandparents. she started to think about adopting Annika, however, the doctor told Klara that it would be impossible for her to adopt her due to how annika saying the boys were mean to her which was a lie so they could get abused When Klara asked the doctor what she should do, he suggested that she should “cure the boy’s evil spirits” She began to beat the boys for every little thing they did wrong, she was looking for literally any reason to hurt them. She would beat them with her bare hands, wooden spoons, belts, and would even go as far as locking them up in small rooms and leaving them there overnight In August of 2006 the doctor told Klara that these punishments weren’t working, and they needed to try something else: SHOCK THERAPY. She was instructed by the doctor to stop acting like their mother completely, and take them to a small cottage in Veverska Bityska, At the cottage they met up with Katerina and a man who will later be revealed as Annika’s brother, and two other women, Jan and Hannah, who Klara knew from the summer camp she would take her sons to. This cottage is where all the torture would begin for these two innocent children. The boys were kept locked up inside of dog cages treated like animals The cages were so small, the boys couldn’t stand up, and could hardly move around at all. They were also forced to eat inside the cages using dog bowls, and forced to use the bathroom inside of them as well, leaving them to sit in their own filth. They were forbidden to talk to each other Klara would dunk their heads in water for so long that the boys were afraid they were going to drown. They were burnt with cigarettes, scratched with forks They cut some flesh off of one of the boy’s buttocks They then forced the boy to eat his own flesh. They enjoyed that so much they began to take the skin off other parts of their body so they could eat it as well, and make both boys eat their own skin. If the boys ever threw up, they were forced to eat that, too. They would also make sure their mouths were taped shut so they weren’t able to scream. The whole cottage shock therapy ended they went back home the boys were treated the exact same way by their mother klara they were put in a cellar locked up Anika was living life in a room with a ton of toys everything she wanted she was manipulating klara Eventually a man who lived nearby set up a baby monitor when he saw a boy tied up eating off the floor he called the police immediately The police arrested both woman including annika and sentenced to 5-10 years and the children were put into a home annika who was really named Barbora sklora a 33 year old woman lying so she could commit crimes the doctor was also her dad
