Marshfield Woman Charged with Child Neglect Appears in Wood County Court

Thursday, June 2nd, 2016 -- 10:19 AM

-A Marshfield woman arrested and charged with child neglect after she dropped a child in front of police at her home appeared in Wood County Court on Wednesday.

According to court records, police were called to the home of 39-year-old Erin Vandenberg because two men who lived there, 52-year-old Kevin Vandenberg and 38-year-old Hector Martinez, were arguing. When authorities arrived there were 4 children crying and hysterical. The home was in deplorable conditions with food, debris, garbage and clothing scattered all over. There were also medications and a kitchen knife in reach of the children. Vandenberg, who admitted to drinking, was stumbling around the home and hitting walls after authorities arrived. At one point, she picked up a 2-year-old child, fell into a wall and dropped the child who hit a table with his back.

All three adults were drunk with Erin having a BAC of .11%, Kevin with .27% and Martinez with .21%. The two men are facing charges of disorderly conduct while Erin is facing several child neglect charges. Vandenberg was in court for a preliminary hearing on Wednesday. Probable cause was found so her court proceedings will continue.
