[Wicked Doll]

I have no idea why her father would feel like this is his fault. She and William are old enough to care for themselves.

Department of Social Services found a 10 and 12-year-old living in a house on Allene Drive among animal feces and urine.

Officials said there were three dogs and four cats in the house. They also found piles of clothing and large overflowing trash bags. Inside the refrigerator and around the house, officials said food was found in various stages of decomposition. Similar conditions were also reported in the children's sleeping areas.

Officials said the house had an overwhelming odor of urine and feces.

The children's mother, Tracy L. Roberts, 31, and her fiance, William A. Vaught, 49, were both charged with two counts of Wanton Endangerment in the First Degree.

Danville Code Enforcement officials declared the property "Unsafe for Human Inhabitation."

"Most of the officers advised me it was the worst scene they had ever gone to," said Chief Jay Newell with the Danville Police Department.

"There was trash, debris, and animal droppings on the floor," says Tom Broach.

Tracy Roberts' father, Bobby Goins, says she intended to clean up the mess and he planned to help, but they hadn't gotten around to it.

"She asked me to come over and get the stuff off the front porch of the house and it seems like every time I was going to do it something came up and I had to do something so that was my fault there," says Bobby Goins.

Goins says now that the house is condemned he hopes the city will let him to step in to help clean it up.

"Try to get it back to living condition," says Goins.

We're told there are plans to remove the trailer from the Imperial Mobile Home Park, but the family says they are against this.

Tracy Roberts kids are now living with her parents. Roberts and Vaught are behind bars at the Boyle County Detention Center.

A Danville woman and her fiancé were charged Thursday afternoon with wanton endangerment after authorities found two children living in squalor in the couple’s home on Allene Drive.

Danville police were dispatched about 3 p.m. Thursday to the residence of Traci L. Roberts and William A. Vaught at 241 Allene Drive. Officers were called by state social workers who were at the house investigating the living conditions of the two children, ages 10 and 12.

Officers found the family, three dogs and four cats living among animal feces and urine throughout the house, police said.

“Piles of clothing and large overflowing trash bags (were) inside the residence,” Capt. Robert Estill said in a press release. “Inside the refrigerator (and) in and around the home food items were in various stages of decomposition.”

The residence had an “overwhelming odor of urine and feces,” and “similar conditions” were found in the children’s sleeping areas, Estill said.

Roberts, 31, and Vaught, 49, were each charged with two counts of first-degree wanton endangerment and placed in the Boyle County Detention Center, police said.

Roberts and Vaught remained this morning in jail under bonds of $500 each, a jail spokeswoman said.

Meanwhile, Danville code enforcement officer Thomas Broach and two Boyle County animal control officers conducted their own investigations, police said.

Broach declared the residence “unsafe for human inhabitation,” police said. The animal control officers removed the seven animals from the house.

Dan Turcea, manager of the Danville-Boyle County Animal Shelter, said this morning that five of the animals found at the Allene Drive residence are at the shelter. He identified them as a Jack Russell terrier, a mother cat and three kittens; he they were all in good physical condition.

Turcea said the other two animals taken from the house — two dogs — are now in the care of relatives of the couple.

That's fucking disgusting pigs. I wonder where the children are.

I wonder where the children are.

Living with her parents.

They're engaged? Wow. A match made in heaven. Two nasty losers who are hopelessly in love in spite of the stench and filth surrounding them.

It just blows me away that people don't mind living in such filth and squalor. Maybe she should get up off her fat butt and clean every now and then. What's up with having all those animals in the house if you're not even going to bother cleaning up after yourselves, much less the animals? And kids aged 10 and 12 are old enough to help keep the place clean except that they've probably lived with the garbage and filth around them for so long that they don't know any different.

Her poor dad. I agree. Why would he think it's his responsibility? Now he's stuck cleaning up all that nasty trash.

Anyone want to bet that the place ends up looking the same after dad cleans it up, they get out, and live there again for a few months?

You know it will. Hopefully DCF or somebody will keep close tabs on these pigs. Not likely, but one can hope.

He wants their nasty asses out of his home.
