Toddler Nailed Inside Bedroom
Rotting food and spoiled milk litter the floor.   (?The hills are alive)

Georgia parents have been busted after their 3-year-old son was found trapped in his bedroom with the door nailed shut. The boy was wearing a soiled diaper, had severe diaper rash and open sores, and no access to proper nutrition—only rotted food and spoiled milk littered the floor, reports ABC News. Cobb County police had to kick in the door to reach the toddler. Kyle Erwin Skinner, 23, and his pregnant girlfriend, Cindy Marie Cantu, 24, face charges of cruelty to a child. Skinner has also been charged with battery to a pregnant woman. (More Cindy Marie Cantu stories.)
