"Jessica Downs, 31, and Sean Landrey, 38, were arrested Thursday on charges of second-degree criminal abuse and endangering the welfare of a minor.
Police were sent on a welfare check after receiving a tip on the abuse hotline stating a 7-year-old girl arrived at school with a cut on her lip.
According to the arrest report, police found a cockroach infestation and "a severe amount of clutter and trash" inside when they arrived at the residence in the 5400 block of Tracy Way.
Authorities said they found cockroaches, cockroach feces and bedbugs on furniture, along the baseboards throughout the home, and inside and around kitchen appliances.
Officers also found filth from the infestation in three beds where four children slept.
In one room, police said they found a 4- and 5-year-old sharing a twin bed that was too small for them and a 7-year-old's bed that were covered with dead and living cockroaches, cockroach feces and bedbugs.
The children told police "they have bugs crawl on them and bite them" when they sleep.
Officers found a crib where a 2-year-old slept in the suspects' bedroom that had a severe infestation, noting they saw hundreds of baby roaches and feces of an estimated 1,000 roaches. Police said they found a cockroach under the child's head when they removed him from the crib.
All four children were reportedly found wearing extremely dirty clothes and had dirty fingernails.
Police said there was already an ongoing investigation with child protective services. Landrey is reportedly the biological father of one of the children and caretaker of the other three."
