Scottsburg City police officer Steven Herald reported that their photographs were "like nothing I had ever seen before."
The children's mother, who ABC 7 Chicago identified as 26-year-old Shyanne Singh, has been charged with three counts of child neglect for allegedly failing to adequately prevent, manage, or treat the infestation. She was arrested on May 4 and remained in custody as of Friday.
The children were admitted to the hospital on April 20 in such poor physical condition that child services contacted local police, according to The News & Observer.
Doctors described the younger of the two, a four-year-old girl, as a "near fatality" because she had lost so much blood that her hemoglobin levels were a fraction of what they should have been1.7 grams per deciliter rather than 12. She was so weak that she could not walk and required multiple blood transfusions.

Fucking jesus, how do you get head lice so bad that they drain you of over 90% of your white blood cells?
