Prison phone call alerts authorities to 3-year-old in bug-infested box
Fox ^ | 12/21/16 | Edmund DeMarche

A phone call from an Indiana state prison inmate inquiring about a little girl possibly being held in a plywood box led authorities to a home in North Judson where they found the 3-year-old curled up asleep inside a 24-by-24-inch box early Wednesday morning, the sheriff told FoxNews.com.

The revelation led to nine arrests—including the girl’s father and his wife, authorities said. The box was located inside the family’s living room.

The child was not identified, but she was found in a plywood box inside the family’s living room.

“It’s one of those deals, you go there and think, ‘Hopefully, this is not true,” Jeff Richwine, the Pulaski County sheriff, told reporters. “Nobody’s going to have a small girl in a box, that’s just not going to happen … You’re thinking, ‘my God, who would do this?”

Christopher Short, 25, the girl’s father, and his wife, Donna, 42, were charged with neglect of a dependent. In court documents, they both stated that the girl would go into the box of her own accord.

I am taking a wild guess and the girls mom is the one in prison and the phone call was the girls father or his wife taunting the mother who was in no position to do anything. heaven help this child.

The girl’s mother is dead. Her father, age 25, has a new 42 yr old wife.

I don’t even want to know what combination of drugs and mental illness has gone on here. I just pray someone with some sense takes this poor baby and gives her a chance, and maybe those “other children in the home” as well.

Since I’m an “eye-for-an-eye” kind of guy, I would construct a couple of appropriately-sized boxes, insert the bugs, and stuff these demonic adults in them for oh, say three years. See how that changes their outlook on life.
