Couple arrested for leaving 3 month old baby in hot running water

Two people have been arrested and charged with child
neglect after police say they left a 3-month-old baby
unattended in hot running water, causing severe burns
on the baby's body.
Marlon Valentine, 39, and Favian Houston, 29, both face
charges of endangering the life of a child and child
neglect.
Police say the two allegedly left the baby unattended in
a sink smelling of urine with hot running water, causing
second degree burns to five percent of the baby's body.
Valentine and Houston also did not provide medical care
for the child in a timely period, police said.
DCFS also removed two other children, ages 2 and 4,
from their residence that appeared underweight and not
properly cared for, police said. They were treated at a
local hospital and released to another family member.
Valentine and Houston were taken into custody Friday
and both posted bond.
