An evil mum and dad who let five children aged under 12 live in squalor in a foul-smelling home have been sent to prison. Lee Carnell, 32, and his ex-girlfriend, Sarah Lamb, 33, of Hull, admitted a series of child cruelty offences involving five children - four girls and a boy.
Investigators found a disgusting scene at the family home. Mouldy food, only four beds for seven people and a “vile” smell, were all discovered at the home. Human waste was smeared on walls close to where toothbrushes were kept.
A court heard how the parents openly smoked cannabis in front of the children, a girl had been assaulted and a boy was banned from using the toilet at night so had to urinate in his room. The mum gave birth to another child during the investigations - her sixth - however it is expected that he will likely to be removed from her indefinitely, the court was told, reports Hull Live.
