A Florida couple is being charged with child neglect after allegedly keeping four children confined in the cab of a tractor-trailer for almost seven years without "time to take showers, use the restroom" or "exercise outside," arrest records show.
The children "have not been allowed to attend school for approximately five years," they told interviewers at a child advocacy center, according to an arrest report.
Keisha Epps, 51, and her fiancé, Tamra Marshon Stewart, 37, have been living in the cab with the children while Epps works as a truck driver, driving a route between Miami and Atlanta, according to court documents.
Since December 2019, the children were kept inside the vehicle "for the majority of their days."
