A depraved couple are set to spend the rest of their lives in prison after subjecting their two adopted sons to sickening sexual abuse.

William Zulock, 34, and Zachary Zulock, 36, were both sentenced to 100 years behind bars without possibility of parole. They pleaded guilty to multiple charges including aggravated sodomy, child molestation, incest and sexual exploitation of children.

The two men recorded the abuse to share with a ring of paedophiles. Prosecutors in Georgia, US, described their home as a “house of horrors”.

The Zulocks adopted their sons from a Christian special-needs agency in 2018 were then five and three years old. They presented themselves on social media as loving fathers, documenting their lives and flaunting their affluent lifestyle in suburban Atlanta.

The sick couple regularly forced their boys to have sex with them on camera. Evidence also showed they bragged about the abuse to twisted friends. New York Times reports one friend told police Zachary once sent a Snapchat message reading: “I’m going to f**k my son tonight. Stand by.” The message was accompanied by images of the boy being abused.

They allegedly allowed at least two other men, who were part of the depraved local paedophile ring, to abuse the boys. The couple were arrested in 2022 after an alleged member of the ring was caught downloading child abuse images and told authorities of how the Zulocks were making sick content with boys living in their house.

Investigators uncovered more than seven terabytes of incriminating evidence in the home, including surveillance footage, graphic messages, and videos documenting the abuse.

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.”
