They look sweaty, dirty and crazy as shit.

Jessica Blair, 35, and Joshua Foster, 35, were charged with felony injury to a child after cops visited their residence in Idaho Falls and allegedly found the young victim inside of a car with a person who was not related to them. The individual said the parents' daily routine involved placing the toddler in a car seat inside the vehicle, according to court documents obtained by East Idaho News.

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare called police to the couple's home on Jan. 29 after an investigation revealed that Blair and Foster were living in filth and squalor, while keeping their son in a car seat inside the abandoned vehicle for days on end.

Asked by cops where their son was, the couple allegedly told them, "In the car," according to East Idaho News. Police say an extension cord was spotted running from the vehicle to the home, with a space heater plugged into it and located inside the car. A dog was allegedly spotted walking and stepping on the child.

Authorities went inside Blair and Foster's home and allegedly found horrid living conditions, including large piles of feces, urine, trash, rotten food, bug infestations, thick layers of dirt, and cigarette butts scattered everywhere. Their son's bedroom had been turned into a living space for six pets, with animal and dog beds found inside surrounded by feces and puddles of urine, cops say.

The child, meanwhile, allegedly had a soaking wet T-shirt on and his diaper was said to have been falling apart. Police believe he had been wearing the same diaper for multiple days; the boy had severe rashes on his groin and inner thighs from sitting in the car seat for long periods of time, according to court documents.

The car seat that the boy was allegedly found in was also wet and severely stained. The child was reportedly removed from the home by workers with the IDHW. Weeks later, on April 9, investigators returned to Blair and Foster's home to see if they had improved the living conditions in an attempt to regain custody.

I guess in Idaho you have to almost kill a child before you lose your rights to them. Returning this child should not have even been a thought in anyone's mind.

The smirking alone should warrant a severely brutal beating. His little dick should be cut off,and her gash sewn shut.

This is so utterly cruel, there are no words.. discarding him like trash and using his room ( which had, I guess, never had bedding, pillows, toys etc) rather as an animal toilet. There can't be a reunification, that boy would not survive.

That’s so nasty!! Both of the… “parents “ look pretty scrappy! Sterilize them so this doesn’t happen again and find a loving family for the child. ! These people are not capable of caring for a child or animals! At least a Dog was in the car with the child, probably did a better job at nurturing the child than the “parents. “ did!! These child welfare agencies need to revamp thier mission statement! “Reunification” has to be in the child’s Best Interests, not the parents!! Some people just are not able to be parents ! Both of these people thought it was ok to leave a human child locked into a car seat for days at a time ! Obviously they didn’t.change him, clean him! Just Wrong on so many levels!! Evil monsters!
