HOUSTON - The children in Houston who were reportedly abandoned in an apartment as their dead brother’s body decomposed relied on neighbors to feed them. "One day he came down and knocked down on my door and asked if I could charge his phone.
So I charged the phone. From there I built a bond with him," neighbor Trevor Thompson told ABC 6 of a 15-year-old boy living in the apartment.
Harris County authorities responded to a call on Sunday after the 15-year-old boy told officials that his 9-year-old brother had been dead for a year.
