A couple from Emmet County in Michigan is in jail facing several counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and first degree child abuse involving young teen girls.
Jeremiah Page, 37, and Kristina Sterly, 37, were arrested on August 25.
Both Page and Sterly face three counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor and three counts of first-degree child abuse.
Page was charged with one count of criminal sexual conduct, first degree (involving a 13-year-old child), two counts of criminal sexual conduct, first degree (involving a 14-year-old child), three counts of child abuse, first degree, and three counts of child sexually abusive activity, aggravated. Sterly was charged with one count of criminal sexual conduct, first degree (involving a 13-year-old child), two counts of criminal sexual conduct, first degree (involving a 14-year-old child), and three counts of child abuse, first degree.
A 13-page affidavit explains in very graphic detail the investigation that was conducted since early February.
“I must say, in my 41 years in law enforcement, this is the most egregious case of CSC and child abuse involving minors. I’ve never seen anything like it before. It’s disgusting,” said Emmet County Sheriff Peter Wallin.
“Page and Sterly were co-conspirators in the abuse. We do see these CSC cases from time to time, I mean, they do come up and we investigate them and charge these people but like I said, I’ve never seen anything like this before,” Wallin continued.
Sterly and her live-in boyfriend Page made an agreement in 2018 to carry out their future crimes.
Page admitted to sexual intercourse with (Victim 1) on three separate occasions. Page admitted to intercourse with (Victim 2) twelve to thirteen times.
Three pregnancies, two of which were terminated by force and another that was carried to term, also took place during the sexual and physical abuse to the girls.
Page was asked if (Victim 2) had children during the pregnancies.
Page responded, “Yes, but you won’t find the bodies because Kristina threw the bodies into a fire pit and burned them up.”
Investigators said they searched the couples property, but tests did not identify any human remains.
“Our interviews and follow-ups, our investigation was probably completed within three weeks and turned over to the prosecutor’s office,” said Wallin.
Emmet County Prosecutor James Linderman, was asked why it took nearly six months after the investigation to charge Page and Sterly.
“There’s a lot of moving parts and pieces in a case like this. So not only do we have the situation as it was turned in by the sheriff’s department and all the background there, there were other legal matters that had to be dealt with in this case. And you’ve got to keep in mind too that we’re dealing with minor victims. When you deal with minor victims, it also puts other factors into the case as to how you deal with it. So that is pretty much the explanation for the timeline. But when we got all through, we wanted to be sure that we had done everything we could to have it adequately investigated, properly analyzed, and charged the best we felt we could charge it. So that’s why you have some of the delay,” said Prosecutor Linderman.
Page is being held without bond in the Emmet County Jail. Sterly is being held on $500,000 cash bond.
What do expect in a country that considers satanism a religion, shuns Christian values, promotes homosexuality sexual deviancy to children in pre-schools, teaches children how to cross dress, and every other kind of ungodly and depraved lunacy you can think… who would have thought the government would be behind the push to create every conceivable gateway to pedophilia and every other sexual depravity
Satanism is NOT a religion but antithetical to religion and is used to hide criminal satanic murders and rituals of the most innocent by criminal evil minds. Go to the origin and intent and purpose of the original definition of “religion”: the current definition is twisted to satisfy criminal minds involved. No criminal gang or belief that violates our laws is genuine religion. Those officials who accept such definitions are either criminals themselves such as pedophiles, hebephiles including murderers of the innocent and involved in child sex sharing -a network- or seriously, irreparably criminally insane.🧐✝️✡️🕎
You forgot same sex marriage. Where are people’s morals when they know the only things that work are (o — ). The biggest decision in 2 flaggits lives is who’s turn is it to lay on their belly.
Teenagers are taking guns to school and killing students. St Louis, 1 former student brought an ar 15 to school with 600 rounds of ammo. He was a SFN and he was killed. Today a couple students were caught with pistols at 2 St. Louis schools. My guess is they (might) have been SFN’S too.
There are so many LOSERS in this country!
This story is totally disgusting and it is probably only the tip of the ICEBERG!
With the Lack of Values in this country, there are so many other cases that haven’t even been discovered!
While these 2 criminals didn’t murder anyone, A Case this aggregeous should warrant the Death Penalty!
They did murder the baby born and forced 2 terminations of pregnancies.
I’m surprised they didn’t invite Joe Biden to join them.
Where were the PARENTS!!!????!!! Don’t parents teach their children to report such crap like this to them?!?
They should, but they forgot!
That wasn’t on the Democrats agenda.
