Ask a silly question...

A few weeks ago I asked, "Can this family's saga get any sicker?"

Don't ask.

All right, you asked. Yes. Yes, it can.
A man accused of abusing his stepdaughter said he's in love with her.

Brian Street is in the Polk County jail facing child pornography charges.

Police say his stepdaughter Tracey Dyess -- was targeting him when she set fire to the family's Griswold home back in March 30.

The blaze killed 13-year-old Jessica Dyess and 6-year-old Kaleb Dyess.

"I love Tracey with all my heart and I stand behind her through all this. I failed to save Jessica and Kaleb from the fire, but I also failed to save Tracey before it. But even after all this I would still marry Tracey if she will still have me," according to the three-page handwritten letter purportedly signed by Street.

A jail supervisor confirmed that the letter came from the Polk County jail and he does believe Street wrote it and sent it.


There are some really messed-up people in this world.
