A shocking investigation has reportedly uncovered disturbing new details about a gay activist couple in Georgia who are charged with raping their adopted sons and pimping them out to a local “LGBTQ pedophile ring.”

A months-long Townhall investigation published Tuesday viewed recorded jailhouse calls and new court documents and spoke exclusively to a family member, revealing that the alleged sexual abuse went much deeper than previously reported. The investigation will have three more installments, Townhall said.

The married couple, William Dale Zulock Jr., 33, a government worker, and his husband Zachary Jacoby Zulock, 35, a banker, were arrested last summer on charges of sodomizing their two elementary-aged sons and prostituting the children.

They were indicted by a grand jury on charges of incest, aggravated sodomy, aggravated child molestation, felony sexual exploitation of children, and felony prostitution of a minor. If convicted, they face more than nine life sentences each.

Both men have pled not guilty.

The Zulocks adopted the brothers, now 9 and 11, from a Christian special needs adoption agency. Before their arrest, the couple lived an affluent life in Oxford, Georgia, an Atlanta suburb. The children were enrolled in 3rd and 4th grade when their adoptive fathers were arrested.

According to the 17-count indictment, the two men allegedly performed oral sex on both their adoptive sons, forced the boys to perform oral sex on them, and raped their sons anally. At least once, the older boy was allegedly injured from the anal rape.

The sexual abuse allegedly began in late 2019 and became worse in 2021, the indictment states.

William has since admitted to forcing his 11-year-old adopted son to perform “oral copulation” on him “with the intent to satisfy his own … sexual desire,” according to a sworn affidavit. Zachary has admitted sending child sexual abuse material to “less than a dozen people.”

They were arrested after police received a tip that a man at the Zulock residence was downloading child pornography. The Walton County Sheriff’s Office issued a search warrant and raided the home just before midnight on July 27. During the raid, Zachary was reportedly tackled to the ground, and William was pulled out of the house naked.

According to the report, police found evidence the men were sexually abusing the children and video documenting the abuse, and both men were booked at the local jail early the next morning.

They are currently being held separately while awaiting their trial. Zachary is under “maximum” security at Barrow County Detention Center “due to the nature of the charges,” a jail staffer told Townhall.

The Zulocks have been a prominent presence in the gay activism scene. In 2014, they marched in Atlanta’s Pride parade, and Out magazine, a well-known LGBTQ publication, has repeatedly asked to feature their photos on its website. Zachary’s Snapchat profile includes “Activist!”

The Zulocks are also charged with soliciting two other men to “perform an act of prostitution” with the older boy, according to the indictment. The two other men are Hunter Clay Lawless, 27, and Luis Armando Vizcarro-Sanchez, 25. Both men are from Loganville, Georgia, slightly north of where the Zulocks lived.

According to Townhall, Lawless told police Zachary invited him “multiple times” to join in sexually abusing his two adoptive sons. However, Lawless never had physical contact with either child, he claimed.

Lawless also said Zachary sent him “numerous” messages on Snapchat, including one that allegedly read, “I’m going to f*** my son tonight. Stand by,” followed by pictures of Zachary sexually abusing his 11-year-old son.

A relative on Zachary’s side who spoke to Townhall said the Zulocks’ lavish lifestyle began about a year after the men adopted the boys.

The couple’s house, vehicles, and other assets have now been seized by the state.

“What a narcissistic sociopath,” the relative said of Zachary, adding that William “always made my skin f***ing crawl.”

The relative also claimed the boys were abused in other ways as well. They were forced to stand in the corner after school for “eight hours straight,” and William was seen slapping the younger son “hard” in the face, the relative said.

“They were just abused every possible way,” the family member told Townhall.

“Just don’t forget me,” Zachary pleaded with the relative at the end of one of the recorded phone calls from jail.
