Octomom's House A Picture of Squalor
TMZ has obtained pictures of Octomom Nadya Suleman's home that have triggered a police and child services investigation into allegations that her 14 kids are living in horrendous conditions and are being grossly neglected.
TMZ
broke the story, Octo's hairstylist, Stephanie, went to La Habra cops
Tuesday afternoon and filed a formal complaint. A La Habra cop and 3
reps from the Orange County Department of Children and Family Services
went to Octo's house Tuesday night to investigate.
One picture shows
two children pooping in a portable training toilet in the backyard.
We're told the plumbing in the house is shot, and only one toilet is
operational.
Another photo shows
Octo just after she got her hair done. What's shocking is that she
locked her kids in the bedroom by propping a chair against the door so
they couldn't get out.
Yet another pic shows the children's bedroom, with 2 cribs and a mattress. Stephanie told cops some of the kids are forced to sleep on the floor.
And there's more ... a pic shows some of the kids in the backyard, barefoot, dirty and wearing no pants.
Stephanie
tells TMZ, "The kids are in desperate need of help, and I tried to help
and she's not open to anyone helping her." She says the boys are
wearing girl's clothes, they are neglected and Nadya is just incapable
of caring for them.
Authorities stayed at Octo's home Tuesday
night for an hour-and-a-half, and determined the kids were not in
danger. There will, however, be follow-up with Children's Services.
Oh gracious. I sometimes wonder if some of this is just grossly misrepresented.. but then again the pictures kind of speak for themselves. I feel bad for all involved.
wow, poor babies! the more I see of crazy people treating their kids like this--just makes me thankful for my parents and makes me want to be an even better mom!
