Laron Modlin, 25, was ordered held without bail after the court learned disturbing new details about the squalid conditions under which little Jahmeik Modlin slowly starved to death.

Food-filled cabinets were sealed shut with child safety locks in the apartment where Modlin and his wife Nytavia Ragsdale, 26, lived with Jahmeik and three other young children, said Assistant District Attorney Heather Buchanan, describing conditions found by medical examiners.

“There was a refrigerator with food in it,” she said. “However, the refrigerator was turned to the wall so it was not accessible by any of the children unless it was turned around.”

He wasn’t a “father”, just a “sperm donor”.

A late term abortion would be appropriate for “mommy” and “daddy”.
