A gay married couple in Georgia who were arrested on suspicion of sexually abusing their two young adopted boys to make child pornography are vehement LGBTQ activists, according to the pair’s social media activity.

On the night of July 27, authorities executed a search warrant around 11:30 p.m. “just hours after receiving information that there were children in harm’s way” at the Oxford home of 32-year-old William Dale Zulock Jr. and 35-year-old Zachary Jacoby Zulock, according to a press release from the Walton County Sheriff’s Office.

Earlier in the evening, detectives in the criminal investigation division raided a house in unincorporated Loganville after the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI)’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force was tipped off that a man was downloading child porn. Authorities learned during an interview with the unnamed individual that there was another suspect in the county who was “producing homemade child sexual abuse material with at least one adopted child who lived in the home with the perpetrator,” the sheriff’s office wrote on Facebook. “Evidence was obtained to corroborate these statements.” Deputies found evidence during the nighttime search-and-rescue effort that “the adoptive fathers of the sibling pair residing in the home were engaging in sexually abusive acts and video documenting this abuse,” according to the Facebook statement.

Both of the Zulock men were booked the following day at the Walton County Jail on pending felony charges of aggravated child molestation, sexual exploitation of a child, and enticing a child for indecent purposes.

William is facing an additional pending charge of child molestation and his bail amount was set at $25,000.

An investigator shared the Zulock duo’s high-resolution booking photos. In one, Zachary’s cheek looks bruised. When Townhall requested the incident reports pertaining to the late July arrests, the Walton County Sheriff’s Office responded: “The associated reports are currently ongoing and nothing is releasable at this time.”

It appears William applied to be represented by a Walton County public defender. A letter viewed by Townhall that was addressed to William shows that the Indigent Defense Program determined that he is ineligible for a court-appointed defense attorney, citing tens of thousands in equity and his spouse’s income of $7,500 a week. A similar denial memo was sent to Zachary, pointing to equity and his own well-to-do weekly earnings.

Zachary’s since-deleted LinkedIn page said he was a branch coordinator at the SunTrust bank in Duluth. A bank supervisor said over the phone, “Unfortunately, I’m not allowed to make any comments,” and, “We can’t verify any information in regards” to Zulock’s current employment at the branch or how much he makes.

Zachary was transferred on July 29 and is being held separately at Barrow County Detention Center. A records manager at the Barrow County Sheriff’s Office provided Townhall with Zachary’s mugshot taken upon transfer.

A source at Walton County Jail told Townhall that the out-of-county detainment transfer was made because the co-defendants were housed together at the same location. Zachary is listed on the inmate page with “Maximum” classification “due to the nature of the charges that are alleged against him,” the source said.

Who exactly are these male suspects accused of child sex crimes they allegedly committed against their own adopted kids? A review of the couple’s online content shows they’ve often championed progressive causes, mostly a pro-LGBTQ+ agenda, despite the heinous acts the gay marital partners allegedly performed on the two prepubescent boys. If the claims are substantiated, the case helps to confirm widespread concerns about the woke regime’s intentions for gaining unlimited access to the country’s most vulnerable population, as the liberal San Francisco Gay Men’s Choir last year unwittingly verbalized: “We’re coming for your children.”

On the surface, the family seemed to be living a picturesque life. William describes himself as “Happily married to the man of my dreams” as fathers “to two beautiful boys through Adoption,” according to his Instagram bio. Since they’ve started dating about a decade ago, William “look[ed] forward to the day” they can “start a family.”

Zachary, a self-described “Activist!” who publicly advertises his Snapchat username, likewise proudly states in his Instagram bio: “Married to my amazing husband William! Papa to our two wonderful boys!”

Both he and William have bragged about their custom-built “dream home”-turned house of horrors, which sits on a two-acre secluded cul-de-sac lot in a private, prestigious upscale neighborhood. The home’s estimated value is almost $700,000. “Getting ideas for our next house,” William captioned a picture taken outside the Biltmore Estate, which is America’s largest home designed for a member of the industrialist Vanderbilt family.

“We did it!!! Its a dream to live here now!!!” William described the couple’s completed “mansion” in 2020, when they spent only a little over half a year building their “forever home” from the ground up. “The kids love the forest behind us and the playroom for all their toys. Much needed space for us to grow into.”

The entire Zulock family, including the boys whose faces were censored in the Instagram post, took a selfie in September 2019 outside the Human Rights Campaign (HRC)’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. HRC is an LGBTQ+ advocacy group, the largest gay lobbying civil rights organization of its kind within the U.S.

“It’s been just over a year as their parents!” William wrote in a May 2019 anniversary Instagram post. “We have loved every moment of it. Was a little ruff starting out but we beat the one year mark…Our little #adoption family.” Standing hand in hand on a beach, the four-member family wore matching “Zulock 2019” t-shirts.

William made the initial adoption announcement in March 2018. “We’re growing by four feet!” read a “Zulock Home” plaque surrounded by two sets of adult men’s shoes and two pairs of children’s sneakers. Holding up a gift at their adoption shower, Zachary showed off a “So Cool Like Dad” t-shirt for one of the boys to wear.
