Man accused of caging children 'planned orphanage'

A man who lived next door to parents accused of abusing some of their adopted children by making them sleep in cages claims the father had planned to leave his job because he made enough money by adopting.

Tom Hall told a US court yesterday that Michael Gravelle told him years ago: “The children that he had paid pretty good, that he was probably going to quit his job and build an orphanage and get all the children he could.”
