A mother in Michigan was arrested after her three children have been left in terrible circumstances for four or five years.
A 34-year-old mother was arrested after her children, a boy of 15 years, and two girls 13 and 12, appeared to stay in a waste and waste covered house.
Sheriff Michael Bouchard of the Oakland County Sheriff office said that the circumstances in which the children were found were 'unconscious'.
“During my extensive career in this area I have never come across a scenario as terrible and extended as this, where abandoning, neglect and abuse of the highest order are involved,” he said.
“This situation would be considered for an animal for an animal, and it is completely unacceptable for three children … The far -reaching consequences of this abuse must be recognized,” he added.
Delegates were called to a house in the 600 block of Lydia Lane on Friday afternoon to perform a welfare check.
The children were found after the landlord of the condominium was worried that he had not heard from their mother since December and the rent was last paid in October.
Upon arrival, representatives discovered the shocking circumstances in which the children were left after they were left in 2021.

Trash was piled up to four feet in some rooms, fungus and human waste were found everywhere, with the toilet overflowing and droppings in the bathtub, said the Sheriff office.
The boy told them that he and his sisters lived alone after he had been abandoned, and they survived for prepared food that their mother or a stranger fell on the porch every week.
There were no personal hygiene items or toilet paper provided to the children, they also did not seem to know how to use such items or know how to rinse a toilet.
Their mother had contact with her son, but not her two daughters, Sheriffs said.
“The children had not gone to school since their abandonment, the time to watch television or play games,” said the Sheriff office.
'It seemed that the girls had not been outside the house for several years. The boy slept on a mattress on the floor while the girls slept on pizza boxes. '
Neighbors said they did not know that the children lived in the house and never saw them outside, but saw the mother drop by the house every month.
A neighbor, Emma Gross, said Wxyz-TV: “Everyone is upset about this … This is good in our neighborhood, how can something like that happen?”
After a hospital evaluation, the children were placed in the custody of a family member by child protection services. The children were found in polluted clothing, with matted hair, and toenails a few centimeters to the point where it became difficult for them to walk
Pontiac Mayor Tim Greimel said: “It's terrible, I mean, it's real – it's not just the material neglect, the healthcare, but the emotional and psychological abuse that this means”

Oakland County Sheriff's Office asked Monday for clothing and shoe donations for the children.
A donator, Linda Kisse, said to Fox 2: “It's just heartbreaking that someone would do that with his children.”
Her daughter, Jackie Kisse, told the outlet that she took the children, soap, soap, female products, shampoo and conditioner and lotion.
“It's just terrible,” said Linda. “I can't imagine it. I am a nurse, so I have seen some things, but never something like that. '
