A mom and dad in Iowa are behind bars after they forced their 4-year-old developmentally disabled to stay inside a “makeshift cage,” cops say.
Fremont County Sheriff Kevin Aistrope said in a press release that deputies received a report shortly before 9 a.m. Thursday about a small child alone along the road in the 1700 block of Washington Street in Hamburg, which is in southwest Iowa near the border with Missouri. When deputies arrived, they allegedly discovered the child “covered in filth and a mixture of both human and animal feces.” They found another child in the home and took both to the hospital for evaluation, Aistrope said.
