| Quote: | Two toddlers are in the hospital Friday after they were found tied up with dog leashes in a backyard in San Antonio, Texas.
In total, eight children were rescued from the same home on Thursday night, ranging in age from 10 months to 13 years old. Sheriff’s deputies found one toddler chained to the ground and the other to a door, according to James Keith of the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office.
Neighbors called police around 11:45 p.m. on Thursday after they heard crying in the backyard “for a long period of time.” When deputies looked inside, they found another six children. It’s unclear exactly how long the children were abandoned for.
The 3-year-old girl is in the intensive care unit with a broken arm, a fractured foot, bruises, and scratches, Keith said. The 2-year-old boy was also taken to the hospital for “a variety of issues,” Keith said, and he is listed in “serious condition.”
“I can tell you from the photos I’ve seen: the little boy was wearing a tight metal chain with zero slack that was wrapped around his ankle and then nailed to the ground,” he said, adding that some of the injuries appeared to be older than 24 hours.
“To describe this as horrific would be an understatement,” he continued. “This is extremely sad, disturbing and disgusting. We are committed to devoting every ounce of our energy to tracking down the people responsible for injuring these children and we will fight to make sure these children are never hurt like this again.”
Their mother, 34-year-old Porucha Phillips, was charged Friday with injury to a child by omission with serious bodily injury and injury to a child by omission with bodily injury. She was playing Bingo when the children were found, Keith said. |

 Yeah. You'd think that conservatives would love Lesbians since pretty much none of them have 8 rugrats munching off the system.
