When George and his parents moved into the trailer park in the fall of 2006, it was accomplished in a somewhat unusual manner. According to the trailer park manager, a relative of the Edenfields in North Carolina had made the arrangements. The trailer park owner only knew that the family that would be living in the trailer had a handicapped adult son.

Even before the trailer park residents knew that they had convicted father-and-son sex offenders in their midst, they knew there was something wrong with the Edenfields. "They were all real creepy," as one neighbor described them. Every once and awhile, George would come flying out of his trailer, screaming and yelling, with his parents close behind him trying to subdue him and persuade him to return home. Sometimes they enlisted the help of a family friend, Donald Dale, when George needed to be captured.

Less than a month after the Edenfields moved in, someone discovered that they were sex offenders — a piece of information that seemed to be communicated at the speed of light to the 50 or so families that lived in the trailer park.
Immediately, one of the neighbors, a mother with young children, contacted the office manager for the organization that owned the trailer park, O& H Enterprises in Brunswick, to register her concern that a child molester and sex offender had moved into the park. The woman told me that the office manager seemed surprised at this information and allegedly told the resident that the whole Edenfield family seemed a bit "off."
