Inside a squalid Louisiana trailer, police say drug-addled parents Angel Taylor and Chevy Lafountain starved their 4-month-old baby girl to death while also neglecting their 1-year-old son so severely, it mystified a local sheriff as to how the toddler managed to survive.
Taylor, 24, and Lafountain, 31, were arrested on Aug. 1 and charged with second-degree murder, neglect, and child abuse.
Taylor, according to the St. John Parish Sheriff’s Office, called police because her daughter was not breathing. When deputies arrived at the couple’s home, they found the infant lifeless on a bed inside.
