Joelle Lockwood freed after being held in wooden cage in Indiana

EVANSVILLE: -- A STRANGER has come to the rescue of a woman who was kidnapped and held in a cage for nearly two months without food or water.

Joelle Lockwood, 30, went missing on July 9 this year, after she was captured by Ricky House Jr, 37, and Kendra Tooley, 44, of Evansville in Indiana.

Lockwood, a mother of two, was lured to their mobile trailer home after he saw her walking in the street. He gave her a lift in his car.

She was later allegedly gagged with chloroform, stripped of her clothes, and locked in a wooden cage, Tristatehomepage.com reports.

Lockwood was recently rescued by Ronald Higgs, Tooley’s ex-husband, who was invited to the trailer one night.

Agree, impossible to live without water.

He says the girl in the cage was Joelle Lockwood. Higgs says it was two and a half feet tall, stuffed in a room, hidden from plain view.

"No food, no water, nowhere to use the bathroom," said Higgs.

Higgs says when he first saw Joelle she was only wearing a t-shirt and a dog collar with a rope tied to it, being treated apparently like a slave.

They gave her their "left-overs" every once in a while. What a couple of screwballs.

Posey County chief deputy sheriff Tom Latham said the woman also was forced to cook and clean for House and Tooley when she wasn't locked in the cage, where she was given little food and water.

Yes, that really deserves a "smiley" in this case.

It takes a "special" person to find humor is such a story.

Typical trailer trash....Just wanted a new family pet!

Skirking responsibility

Lot of banjos playing across the pond, no?

You couldn't make this sh*t up!

Maybe she should change her last name.

A visitor to the trailer rescued the caged women.

What would you do, you visit folks and during the evening you notice a caged woman , I would love to be a fly on the wall , listening to that conversation.

I live in a trailer and make close to 6 figures in the US, does this make me trailer trash? Please refrain from making such assumptions about people based on stereotypes.

It is impossible to determine that with the limited information you have provided.

If you really want to know the answer please respond to the following:

1) Is your trailer a "double-wide"?

2) Do you have a rebel flag in atleast one front window and plywood boarding up another?

3) Does your kitchen sink do double-duty for cooking meth?

4) Do you own a pitbull or American staffordshire?

5) Do the police only enter your trailer park with SWAT present?

6) What type of empty alcohol containers do you have in your garbage can at this moment?

7) Do you currently have one car up on blocks?

8) Is your nearly 6-figure income earned legally?

Cheers

6 figures, on one hand?

Should we tell him that the two thumbs on his one hand while a hazard of inbreeding don't technically count as fingers.

Just do the same to the captors! See how they like it.

I can't stand these insects.
