Black parenting: An anonymous call to a child-abuse hotline led police to 10-year-old girl who weighed just 32 pounds, locked in a closet and surrounded by her own waste

Identified only as "LP," the girl told police that she was rarely allowed to leave the closet and often went days without being fed. LP's African-American mother, Jacole Prince, has been arrested and charged with assault, child abuse, and endangering a child’s welfare.
