The couple appeared at Coventry Crown Court this week
The couple appeared at Coventry Crown Court on Tuesday, and were sentenced to 12 months in jail, suspended for two years.
During the case, Judge Philip Gregory told the defendants:
“You had the care of two very young and vulnerable children. This was an enormous privilege. You were responsible to discharge that care carefully and properly so that these two children were well looked after, properly fed, kept warm and kept clean.
“Over a period of at least two months you failed immeasurably to fulfill that responsibility to these two children. As a consequence your home was visited and was found to be, quite frankly, disgusting.
“The two children were not properly clothed, you had let them get too cold, you hadn’t fed them properly and you hadn’t washed them.”Explore more on these topics:
