After living on a single food item, a four-year-old child was discovered trapped alive in her own New York house.
On Friday, May 2, the girl’s mother, Lisa Cotton, 38, was discovered dead at their house when her oldest daughter, who was worried, went to the Bronx apartment to see how her family was doing.
The woman’s landlord had called Lisa’s father, 71-year-old Hubert Cotton, to inquire as to whether Lisa had left the house.
“She never picked up when I tried to call her for days. He told the New York Post, “I assumed she didn’t respond to me because she didn’t want me to speak to her.”
The terrible discovery was made by Lisa’s oldest daughter, as paramedics pronounced eight-year-old Nazir Millien and his mother Lisa dead at the spot.
Cotton told the New York Post, “[Nazir] was slumped over when she came in.” The four-year-old Promise was ‘feeding herself with chocolate’ on her mother’s bed when Lisa’s daughter reportedly went looking for her.
