In this July 12, 2018, photo, Li Mingming, whose foot is chained to a bed, a practice sometimes employed by families in rural China to keep mentally disabled relatives from wandering away, watches television in this home in Gucheng village in central China's Henan province. The AP spoke to the family Marip Lu, a young woman from Myanmar, accused of abusing her. The father, Li Qinggong, and the mother, Xu Ying, both denied Marip Lu had been abused or raped, and insisted she had not been purchased. But neither was able to explain how she'd ended up in their faraway village, or how she allegedly met and “married” their mentally disabled son, Li Mingming, seen in this photo.
