Ohio rescue uncovers 16 children living in squalor in rural home

Authorities in rural Hamden, Ohio rescued 16 children aged 1 to 18 from an overcrowded, filthy five-bedroom home, described as squalid with piles of trash and little furniture. The children, mostly confined to a single room for years and not enrolled in school, were hospitalized with some in serious condition. Four family members — the grandparents and their son and daughter-in-law — were charged with 16 counts of felony endangering children; if convicted on all counts, they could face up to 192 years in prison. Police tape remained around the property more than a week after the June 30 warrant.

Mother charged in newborn twins' deaths.

A 16-year-old mother in Cleveland has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, gross abuse of a corpse, endangering children, and tampering with evidence in connection with the death of her newborn twins. The infants were found in a trash can along Ludlow Road and appeared to be born early at about 30 weeks gestation. The mother of the teen girl did not know her daughter was pregnant. The girl initially faced a total of nine criminal counts, including a murder charge, but the prosecutor determined that a charge of involuntary manslaughter would be more appropriate.
