A mom in Pennsylvania who couldn’t control her son while she was at work started stowing the 11-year-old away in her basement, locking the boy up to a fuel tank and other things for hours on end using handcuffs, police say.

Chazzity Candelario, 33, of North Lebanon Township, is facing felony charges of unlawful restraint of a minor and false imprisonment of a minor, as well as a misdemeanor charge of endangering the welfare of children, for the alleged abuse. She was also arrested in 2017 for endangering the welfare of children, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia in connection to an incident involving her kids, according to the Lebanon Daily News.

“On January 11, 2025 … the Lebanon County Regional Police Department was dispatched to 680 East Kercher Avenue for an 11-year-old juvenile male that was restrained with handcuffs,” the Lebanon County Regional Police reported online Tuesday. “An investigation revealed the juvenile’s mother, Chazzity Candelario, had restrained the juvenile to an oil tank in the basement using handcuffs.”
