Police say the woman left Texas, leaving her 12-year-old daughter to care for a 3-year-old brother, with very little food available for nearly two months.
A mother is wanted by Roman Forest police, accused of abandoning her two young children and leaving them alone, in deplorable conditions with very little food, for nearly two months.
"No food in the house; everything was empty," Chief Stephen Carlisle said. "There were some dry beans and spices. That was it."While the refrigerator and cabinets were nearly empty, the 3-year-old's bedroom smelled like heavy urine, according to investigators. The children have different fathers and, according to investigators, Yates threatened her 12-year-old daughter that the girl's father would take her and leave her 3-year-old brother alone if she told anyone.
