Reportedly, Ayinde will stand trial for each daughter, all of whom are over the age of 18.
The 51-year-old director of the The Fugees' 'Killing Me Softly' video faces 27 charges, including aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault, lewdness, child endangerment, aggravated criminal sexual contact and criminal sexual contact and the list goes on.
Ayinde, who prosecutors say is obsessed with creating a pure bloodline, allegedly maintained his house of horrors for more than two decades, from 1980 until 2002. The family lived mostly in East Orange, N.J., in an abandoned funeral home, where they all squatted for quite some time.
Court records indicate that Ayinde would brutally beat his children into submission, often kicking them with steel-toe boots. He never allowed them to attend public school. Ayinde reportedly demanded that the children be home-schooled, so that they would never have the opportunity to divulge what was going on in their home.
Ex-wife, Beverly, who married Ayinde in 1977, also testified at a pretrial hearing and is now at the actual trial. The mother of nine claims that she, too, was a victim and was scared to death of reporting her spouse to authorities:
"I was afraid to ever accuse him of being demented or being a pedophile. I knew the word, but I wouldn't dare use it because it would result in a beating," she told the Associated Press.
The three daughters that Ayinde impregnated gave birth to a total of six children, and Ayinde allegedly delivered all of the infants at home. Ayinde also reportedly buried two of the babies, who were stillborn.
Ayinde, who claims he is not guilty of the charges against him, stated to the jurors that he loved his children and said that his ex-wife's testimony, claiming he was physically abusive to his children, was "fabricated" and that they all lived in a peaceful polygamous household.

This man should be killed softly. He should be hung up by his balls then castrated. He is a very sick man. I rather take an ass whipping and tell then take an ass whipping and say nothing. But, for me the first ass whipping would have been the last!

When I first heard about this SICKO, I was speechless? HOW COULD HE? He is EVIL! I hope he gets the MAX of jail sentence for the CRIMES what he committed! His daughters and children are Mentally & Physcally hurt! Yeah, the Ex-Wife should have stepped in and let the Authorities get involved to stop this! She would have been protected too if she would have done the right thing for her and her children!
I pray for all of the daughters and their children to get some type of help and hope that this is closure for them knowing that this SICKO MONSTER (I wouldn't call him father)is put behind bars for a very long time and won't harm them again!
Remember a year or so ago, when that Old White Man, I forget where they were from kept his daughter and his children from his daughter locked up in a secret underground place for 20 or so years? UNBELEIVEABLE! He repeatedly raped and raped his daughter. This SICK man's wife didn't have a clue what was going on and assumed that their daughter(That was held captive underground), was missing and dead? The daughter had children (Can't remember, how many?), and 2 had died. This poor young woman was a captive underground and didn't see the day of light until not too long ago they were discovered and then rescued? THANK GOD, they are away from this SICK MONSTER and that she and her children can seek and get the help that they need and have a normal & healthy life. Sick people like that should be locked up for life and should never see the day or light!
