Mentally Challenged 14 Year Old Dies

[Emily Behrend]

A mentally challenged boy died at age 14 because his mother had 100+ animals in the house. It smelled of poop/pee and was never clean. She is charged of many things. His mom had a total of 5 children, and his little sister has severe autism. They found 4-5 inch hissing cockroaches, and the plumbing didn't work. The house was infested with spiders and insects. Who could stand living in those conditions, let alone trying to raise a family? There are obviously some disabilities in that family. Personally the 18 year old son should have stepped up and helped his brother/sisters out of the house. I feel really bad for the kids, but I am glad that they are now out of their mother's "care". What are your thoughts?

100+ animals that is so gross! I can't believe someone could even live like that! I think someone should have stepped up to help the kids in the house out mostly the 18 year old.

How can you keep over 100 animals in a house? The most I've had at once is 3 and how can you even live with the smell of poop and pee everyday. I mean I would get sick of it after a while and probably ask to stay with a friend.
