Deputies on Tuesday, Feb. 12, 2019, discovered two malnourished children crammed into a locked dog cage and two more smeared with feces and urine in a barn in North Texas, in what a sheriff described as the worst case of child abuse he has ever seen. Joseph Fabila and Harkings, the mother of the four children, have been jailed without bond after the children were found at their rural home. “I’ve not worked one where children are locked inside a dog kennel, and I find that absolutely disgusting,” he said.
