UK news: Evil parents neglected children for years - leaving them in 'squalor' in vile home
Two evil parents neglected their children for years, leaving them in degrading scenes of 'squalor' in their vile home. Lee Carnell, 32, and his ex-girlfriend, Sarah Lamb, 33, have been jailed after a judge said their five children had been 'damaged and damaged badly', Hull Live reports.
"It is neglect over years, not weeks. It's neglect of their emotional needs. For these children, moving on is going to take many years in terms of the physical harm they have suffered and, more importantly, the emotional harm they have suffered. These are still children with very serious problems that they are going to live with for many years."
The teeth of one of the girl's were "grossly decayed" and were in a "dismal" state. All the children's teeth had been neglected and needed work to rectify it. There had been numerous missed medical appointments for them, their eyes had not been tested and they were not up to date with vaccinations. They had poor school records and were up to 18 months or two years behind where they should be in their progress.
Carnell - who became notorious as a cage-fighting rapper - later told police that the couple did not have a vacuum cleaner and the reason the house smelled was because of a water leak problem. The bottom of the fridge had melted and that was why there was slime. He spent £40 a week on cannabis. Carnell realised that he had lost his children. He had left his girlfriend and had decided to change his ways. He had been drug-free for three years, had been living in Coventry and had started an odd-job business.
Lamb now had a baby son after becoming pregnant again when she believed that she was unable to have any more children. She did not have any contact with the other five children.
