the children aren’t abused per se, but they are murdered, and their deaths are described very graphically.

The murderer claims at first that he killed his wife because she was violent towards the children, but this is not the case. He strangles her and suffocates his daughters.

Not sure if it counts, but *spoiler* the daughters are thrown down oil tanks and are found dead, perhaps from the fall.
