A vile couple are destined to spend their remaining years behind bars after subjecting their two adopted sons to horrific sexual abuse.

William Zulock, 34, and Zachary Zulock, 36, were both handed a sentence of 100 years in prison without the chance of parole.

They admitted to numerous charges including aggravated sodomy, child molestation, incest and sexual exploitation of children. The pair filmed the abuse to distribute amongst a network of paedophiles.

Prosecutors in Georgia, US, labelled their residence as a “house of horrors”. The Zulocks adopted their sons from a Christian special-needs agency in 2018 when they were just five and three years old.

They portrayed themselves on social media as doting fathers, showcasing their lives and flaunting their wealthy lifestyle in suburban Atlanta. The depraved duo regularly coerced their boys into engaging in sexual acts with them on camera.

Evidence also revealed they boasted about the abuse to perverted acquaintances. The New York Times reports one friend informed police that Zachary once sent a Snapchat message stating: “I’m going to f**k my son tonight. Stand by.” The message was accompanied by images of the boy being abused, reports The Mirror.

They allegedly permitted at least two other men, who were part of the local paedophile ring, to abuse the boys. The couple were apprehended in 2022 after an alleged member of the ring was caught downloading child abuse images and informed authorities about how the Zulocks were producing sickening content with boys residing in their home.

Investigators found over seven terabytes of damning evidence in the suspects’ residence, including harrowing surveillance recordings, explicit messages, and abuse videos.

At their sentencing, District Attorney Randy McGinley described the couple’s crimes as “as dark as it gets”.

He also praised the young boys – who are now in foster care – for helping to ensure their abusers will never walk free. Both men will each serve 100 years behind bars without the possibility of parole, followed by a lifetime of probation.

These two defendants truly created a house of horrors and put their extremely dark desires above everything and everyone else,” McGinley said.

“But their depravity was no match for the resolve of those fighting for justice.”
