Mother, stepdad reportedly kept autistic, malnourished 18-yr-old daughter confined to a feces-filled room before she died
It has been revealed that an 18-year-old girl who had been described as "severely autistic" was found in a feces-filled room in her home in California. Deputies from the Riverside County Sheriff's Office found Kaylina Anderson shortly after midnight on March 10 after they got a call for an unattended death. The authorities have described that the teen had a "diminished physical appearance" and that the family home, in general, had been in a substandard condition.
36-year-old Jill Williams, Anderson's mother, and 40-year-old Steven Williams, her stepfather, had both been charged with murder in connection to her death. After the pair made a brief appearance in court on Wednesday, it was revealed that the 5'2" teen was only 45 pounds when she died.
