Mother-of-Ten Amanda Wixon Kept a Girl Captive and Forced Her Into Modern-Day Slavery

Mother-of-Ten Amanda Wixon Kept a Girl Captive and Forced Her Into Modern-Day Slavery

In March 2021, police in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire made a discovery that would shock even seasoned officers. A woman in her early forties was found severely malnourished, terrified, and living in conditions described as prison-like inside an ordinary family home. Prosecutors later revealed that she had been brought into the home at just 16 years old and allegedly held captive for more than two decades. The woman responsible was 56-year-old Amanda Wixon.According to investigators, the victim was subjected to years of forced labor, violence, and extreme control. She was made to clean for hours daily, cook, run errands, and care for Wixon’s ten children, all while being denied proper food, hygiene, medical care, and freedom. Prosecutors detailed repeated assaults, including strangulation and beatings. Meanwhile, Wixon claimed government benefits in the victim’s name for years. Neighbors later said they hadn’t seen the woman in years, unaware of what was happening behind closed doors.On January 21, 2026, at Gloucestershire Crown Court, Wixon was convicted of multiple charges, including forced or compulsory labor and false imprisonment. She denied the allegations and showed no remorse following the verdict. Today, the survivor is rebuilding her life: attending college and living with a foster family, but continues to cope with the lasting trauma of the abuse. What allowed this to go unnoticed for so long remains one of the most disturbing questions of all.#TrueCrimeRecaps #AmandaWixon #FalseImprisonment #ForcedLabor
