The estranged brother of accused shackle dad David Turpin is taking a leave of absence from his job as president of a Christian college in Ohio.

Dr. Randy Turpin — brother of accused child-torturer David Turpin — is on sabbatical from Valor Christian College while he deals with “revelations about estranged family members,” a statement from the college provided to The Post reads.

“The Valor Christian College community joins with millions of Americans who are shocked and saddened by these terrible stories from California and we are praying for the full recovery of all involved,” it said.

The college was founded by televangelist Rod Parsley, founder of World Harvest Church in Columbus.

Police arrested David and wife Louise Turpin after their 17-year-old daughter told officials they were keeping her and her 12 siblings prisoner inside their own home.

Louise’s sister Teresa Robinette has said the allegedly cruel mom was also estranged from her kin.
