Police said the children were transported immediately to a hospital because of their conditions.
The twins, born Oct. 1, 2018, weighed 8 pounds and 10 pounds when they were hospitalized, the complaint said. According to the complaint, it's possible both children will have severe cognitive issues due to extended malnutrition.
Police said Washington admitted that since February or March, she'd only been feeding the children hemp milk, which contains hemp seeds, dates and water.
The complaint said Washington had been worried about the twins' weight since March, when she started seeing their rib cages, but didn't seek treatment because she was worried the children would be taken by authorities.
A city agency attempted to assist Washington with the children's feeding, the complaint alleged, but she ignored medical advice and stopped working with the agency.
