The Darkness of Riches: From Victims to Victors

Season 12Episode 9360 minJan 31, 2014

In an exclusive interview, 16-year-old twins Georgia and Walker “Patterson” Inman, who, at 21, will reportedly inherit $1 billion as the only living heirs of the Duke tobacco fortune, open up to Dr. Phil about the abuse they claim they suffered for more than a decade. The twins were born into a family of prestige and extreme wealth -- vacationing on the beaches of Fiji, having wild animals as pets and bringing diamonds to school for show-and-tell -- but say their lives have been anything but privileged. After their parents divorced and their father, Walker Inman Jr., won custody, they claim they lived each day in a state of pure terror -- burned with boiling water, forced to live in a feces-filled basement and held prisoner behind dead-bolted doors. How do they say they survived years of alleged torture? Their father, whom they claim abused drugs, died of an overdose in 2010, and the teens were reunited with their mother, Daisha Inman, with whom they now live. You won’t believe what happened when their mother came to save them from the mansion that they say had become their prison. How are their lives now? And, what are their dreams for the future? Plus, hear why the teens say they are survivors who are fighting for justice against those who they say harmed them.
