Isabella said Child Protective Services deemed her “an inherent risk” and took the children from her and previously placed them in a foster home. “All the risks, that were supposedly at risk being with me, their mother, is exactly what happened in the homes that they put them in. My daughter was found tied up to a playpen, and my son was found inside of a playpen with the cover on it pretty much and the door was locked, and fire people had to kick open the bedroom door, where they also then found my kids tied like that,” Isabella said.

Police gave the children back to the workers that put them in that horrible situation, but say that they are investigating.
