A Missouri man who had asked for custody of his now 13-year-old daughter after confessing to raping and sodomizing another daughter when she was 14 has been granted an early release from prison after serving only five years of his sentence.
A third daughter of Charles Haynes—Mikaela Haynes—made national headlines in 2018 when she killed herself at age 14 after her own court-appointed advocate recommended her father be granted custody of her despite his conviction for raping her older half-sister.
