Baton Rouge police detectives investigating a loud music complaint late Tuesday found 15-year-old boy who weighs 47 pounds and was covered in urine, feces and cockroaches laying on a cot.

The child was stuck to the cot from lying in feces and urine for several days, the responding officer wrote in a report. The teen had one large bedsore on his right hip, multiple bug bites all over his body and appeared to be having a seizure.

Paramedics immediately transported to a nearby hospital where he is in critical condition from being severely malnourished, according to police records.

Police arrested the boy's mother, Rose Holland, 49, of Baton Rouge, and booked her into East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on counts of second-degree cruelty to a juvenile, possession of crack cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Holland's roommate called police around midnight complaining that Holland was blaring loud music from her bedroom, police reports show. Officers arrived at the home in the 1700 block of North 46th Street, found Holland and another woman, Cathy Fort, sitting in a vehicle parked in front of the house and heard music blaring from the house.

When one officer told told Holland to go back inside the house to turn the music down, he saw a clear glass pipe and what the officers said appeared to be crack cocaine, police reports say. He placed both women in handcuffs, then searched the car. He found a small brown purse underneath the seat with more suspected crack cocaine.

Holland said the drugs were hers, police reports say. One officer went inside the house to see if there were anymore drugs. He asked the roommate which room was Holland's. He walked into the room to find the 15-year-old boy in the cot.

Fort was also booked on counts of possession of crack cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Typical BR trash. The fact that this all went down on N. 46th doesn't surprise me one bit. North Baton Rouge is a borderline-third-world shithole; and as with most capitol cities, nothing good ever goes down on a numbered street. The cops did her a favor by bringing her to EBR, since the cells there are better than any dilapidated shithole you're likely to find for rent in North BR.

I cannot imagine my own 15 yr old sticking around if his home was like this, I think this kid must have been neglected for many years.

“I used to do patty cake with him. He has some understanding. He just couldn’t talk,” Mitchell said, who added the “baby,” as the family called him, still wore diapers and drank milk from a bottle. “He couldn’t really chew food. It had to be like creamed potatoes or grits,” she said.

Mitchell said she visited with the boy a few weeks ago. She’d previously notified Children and Family Services concerning the boy but never police, she said. There was no reason Holland, who is her sister and has six children, couldn’t take care of him properly, Mitchell said.

“She had more than enough money,” Mitchell said, noting Holland receives public assistance checks. The boy attended school in St. Gabriel at one point, she said, but his mother removed him after he’d been ignored and was found lying on a mat in a corner.

“She stopped letting him go to school” and to therapy, she said. “She wasn’t doing nothing for the baby.”

The boy’s father, Lavear Andrews, said Wednesday he was involved in his son’s life and was trying to track him down at a hospital.

“I’m really shocked,” he said.

Neighbors on the quiet dead-end street where the teenager was found Wednesday said they rarely saw the boy, if at all.

“I’ve never seen him talk, never seen him run, never seen him outside. Never seen him until I went in that one time,” said 43-year-old Joseph Byrd, who lives across the street and fixed a radio inside the residence once. “He was in the bed laying down watching TV. He didn’t open his mouth. He didn’t say nothing.”

Mary Roberson, a neighbor a few doors down, was flabbergasted by news of the malnourished boy.

“I didn’t know a child was in there. As close as we are, didn’t know a child was in that house. That’s terrible,” she said, leaning against a pickup truck, talking with other neighbors. “If I had known it, I surely would have reported it.”
