Atlanta , Georgia ( CNN ) -- When police walked into the home , they found a 5-year-old girl weighing nearly 160 pounds , her teeth rotting , her skin covered in spider bites . Her 4-year-old sister was lying on a filthy mattress , wearing only a urine-soaked diaper . Police were responding to a domestic dispute call at the Marietta , Georgia , house Monday when they encountered the shocking scene . They called in child abuse investigators , and ultimately arrested the parents , James and Anne Cardona , charging both with second-degree child cruelty , Cobb County police spokesman Joe Hernandez said . The children are now in the state custody . Their parents were released on bond , but Anne Cardona was arrested again late Thursday for giving `` misleading information '' to a magistrate judge at the couple 's first court appearance Tuesday , said Col. Milton Beck of the Cobb County sheriff 's department . She remained in jail Friday without bond until further notice from court , he said . Attempts to reach her husband were unsuccessful Friday , and it was n't immediately clear whether they had retained legal counsel . Asked by CNN affiliate WSB-TV on Thursday whether the children were mistreated at the home , Anne Cardona said no . Police had only stopped at the family 's home in the Atlanta suburb one other time , more than a year ago , but had n't observed anything like they saw Monday , Hernandez said . The house `` stunk of urine and mold , '' according to the arrest warrants for the Cardonas . It is `` infested with roaches , [ fleas ] , cobwebs and gigantic spiders , '' the documents said . The bathroom and shower are covered in black mold and dirt , they said . Neither girl is enrolled in school . Both are severely obese . The older daughter , who weighs 158 pounds , could not walk 10 feet without `` becoming out of breath and wheezing , '' officers said . The younger child weighs 89 pounds and still drinks from a baby bottle . Her feet were blackened with dirt , her skin also covered in insect bites . `` A situation like this is tragic -- tragic for the family , but mostly for the kids , '' said Normer Adams , executive director of the Georgia Association of Homes and Services for Children , a trade group representing a range of agencies , including foster homes and family support programs . `` This is an extreme case of neglect by the parents , '' he said . `` These kids are hurting on many levels -- certainly educational development , and probably social development . '' Adams said it 's unlikely that the Cardonas would be able to regain custody of their children , saying it 's `` too late '' for the family to avoid foster care .
Police found the two young Georgia girls covered in filth and bug bites . The 3 - old girl weighs 158 pounds ; the - old weighs 135 pounds . Their parents have been charged with child cruelty , a felony .
