Octomom Investigated by CPS After Complaints Her Home Has No Plumbing
Nadya “Octomom” Suleman is in danger of losing her 14 children after police paid a visit to her La Habra, California home after her hairstylist visited her home to do her hair, found deplorable living conditions, and filed a complaint.
Not only were her youngest, the 3-year-old octuplets, dirty and walking around barefoot in only T-shirts, but they were being forced to urinate and defecate in training potties set up in the backyard because the house’s plumbing was not working, according to the stylist named Stephanie.
Stephanie also took photographs, which have been obtained by TMZ, and claims that while she was giving Suleman a Brazilian blowout and haircut on April 18, the children were locked in a bedroom. In one photo Stephanie took, the mother-of-14 is shown happily flaunting her new hair — which she paid $520 (that includes two previous haircuts and $80 worth of product), despite the fact she’s on welfare.
Child Protective Services went to the Suleman home to investigate Stephanie’s claims. In a video, children can be heard as the group repeatedly bangs on the front door until Suleman, 36, finally lets them in. Before the video cuts off, she can be heard telling them, “Excuse the graffiti.”
After an hour-and-a-half, CPS left after determining the children were not in immediate danger, but a spokesperson did tell TMZ the investigation is ongoing and there will be a follow-up visit to the Suleman home.
