Custodial dad gets 3 life sentences in death of 12-year-old daughter (Durant, Oklahoma)

It seems it's been years since this very odd case first broke. And we still don't really know much about what happened.

It is clear that dad ABEL WOLF had custody of his 12-year-old daughter, and we STILL don't have any explanation as to how or why. To the end, the Oklahoma media has maintained a perfect silence on this issue.

Notice a very familiar trope here: The Evil Stepmother Incarnate. I don't doubt that the step was one twisted sister. But notice how these custodial dads always try to sidestep their own personal responsibility by investing in these women near Svengali-like powers. It's all bullsh** really. Wolf wants to us to believe that he's a poor whipped, henpecked sort of felller--and then he beats up somebody in jail. Riiight.

DURANT, OK - A Bryan County District Judge sentenced 37-year-old Abel Wolf this morning to three 100 year sentences and another five years for child abuse, neglect and moving his 12-year-old daughter's dead body across the country.

A Bryan County District judge is calling a rural home in southern Oklahoma a house of horrors. It's the place where 12-year-old Cheyenne Wolf endured years of abuse and neglect by her stepmother and her own father.

"That little girl went through so much that words can't even describe," said OSBI Director Stan Florence.

Cheyenne suffered from Spina Bifida. Authorities say her stepmother, Denise Wolf abused her for years. She tied her to a bed or chair every night -- sometimes even face down -- and it all happened while her father turned a blind eye.

But one night Abel Wolf said he did check on his daughter after he heard his wife yelling and then heard a loud thud.

"His wife had been beating her and knocked her to the floor. Afterward her motor skills weren't the same, she wasn't acting appropriately. The next day Cheyenne died,"said District Attorney Emily Redman.

That's when they buried Cheyenne's body under a porch in a Bryan County home, but in an effort to escape arrest they dug out her remains and moved them to Montana and then Oregon in Rubbermaid tubs.

"The information began to seep out from Denise Wolf, she began to share information with family members and in turn contacted Ardmore police," said Redman.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, along with several other agencies, spent months investigating the Wolfs and gathered enough evidence to file a litany of charges against the pair.

When the Wolf's were taken into custody, Abel Wolf told detectives he had a weak personality and couldn't stand up to his wife's form of discipline and that's why he let the abuse continue.

But court documents reveal that Wolf beat up another inmate after he learned that inmate was arrested for for abusing a child.

"That child Mr. Wolf didn't know and didn't know the facts of the case, yet he admitted, pleaded guilty, and was convicted for beating up an inmate for harming a child," Redman said.

And now Abel and Denise Wolf will spend the rest of their lives behind bars for committing a horrific crime that prematurely ended Cheyenne Wolf's life. But in all the bad those close to the case say people must not forget about Cheyenne's two sisters, who have to live with what they saw happened for the rest of their lives.

"They experienced that same type of abuse to some extent, and that's something they live with everyday and we would ask the public to keep them in their thoughts and prayers," said Redman.
