Two parents who were facing 20 criminal charges of felony child abuse on Monday agreed to a plea deal that could send them to prison for a maximum of three years.
Brian and Monica Campbell were arrested last year after video footage revealed years of physical and sexual abuse they subjected their four adopted children to at their Hereford home.
