In a disturbing incident, a Virginia mother and her apparent boyfriend have been arrested on charges of child neglect, cruelty, and abduction after two young boys were found chained to a post inside a home in Groveton, Virginia.
The incident came to light when Fairfax County Police responded to a report of alleged child neglect at an apartment on Tower Drive. Upon knocking on the door, officers heard chains rattling inside. Upon entering, they discovered two boys, aged nine and seven, chained by their ankles to a post next to a sleeping cot.
