Tracey Byrd and Michael Sparks of Lawrenceville, Georgia were arrested earlier this week after a complaint from one of their children’s schools was made to police about their conditions. The Lawrenceville PD paid a visit to their home earlier this week and ended up staying for several hours searching the filthy place.
Police found garbage all through the home as well as the skeletal remains of four dogs. An animal control officer estimated that they had died from starvation. The dogs may have starved but it’s for damn sure judging by the mug shots that Byrd and Sparks didn’t miss too many meals.
The couple’s children have been removed from the home and both Byrd and Sparks were lodged in the Gwinnett County Jail on two charges each of animal cruelty. Their bond is $11,200 each.
