The couple that used the “House of Horrors” for multiple murders and torture were convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison, as was one of their accomplices, Vicente Pablo Valdez Valdez. A former policeman, Wilson Castillo German was sentenced to 20 years for his part in the horrendous murders of several people in the house in the Mendoza section of Santo Domingo. Several bodies were found buried in the back yard of the house occupied by Joel Antonio Rodriguez and Jossi Roxanna de Leon last year, and newspaper reports of the grisly scenes inside the house created a wave of disgust seldom seen in the media.
