Three-year-old boy who was found dead was allegedly forced to live in filth and sleep with roaches by his own mother
A cousin of the mother from Las Vegas, who was charged after the body of her three-year-old son was found in a park on September 3, has come forward with some horrifying revelations on the family. The woman was allegedly terrible at taking care of her two children, making them live in "filth" and sleep on beds infested with roaches. Crystal Kahles, said in an interview, that her cousin, Cassie Smith, "Just wasn’t deserving of those kids".
Smith and her 40-year-old boyfriend, Josh Oxford, were arrested on September 3 after the body of Smith's son, Daniel Theriot, was found in the park a day after Smith reported the child as missing. Kahles said: "They were so full of love and energy and laughter. And they were just innocent little babies. Daniel, he didn’t deserve this. He deserved a mother who was going to protect him."
