Two Scottsburg, Indiana children were suffering from lice infestations so severe that one of them was near death when she finally received treatment at Scott Memorial Hospital, according to WHAS 11.
Scottsburg City police officer Steven Herald reported that their photographs were like nothing I had ever seen before.
The children s mother, who ABC 7 Chicago identified as 26-year-old Shyanne Singh, has been charged with three counts of child neglect for allegedly failing to adequately prevent, manage, or treat the infestation. She was arrested on May 4 and remained in custody as of Friday.
