Children removed from filthy home, two charged with child abuse in southeast Nebraska

WILBER, Neb. (KOLN) – Two arrests have been made after deputies found meth and children living in filthy conditions at a Wilber home.

Saline County deputies arrested 36-year-old Quentin Teeters and 32-year-old Cortney Connelly on July 5. The pair have since been charged with child abuse and multiple drug related counts.

The sheriff’s office had been looking to arrest Teeters after he allegedly violated the parameters of his sex offender registry. Deputies were looking for him at a home in Wilber and spoke to the woman who lived there on July 5 just before 8 p.m.

The woman, later identified as Connelly, confirmed Teeters lived at the home but wasn’t there at the time, according to an arrest affidavit. But deputies were let inside and found Teeters in the basement.

Teeters was taken into custody, and deputies discovered he was in possession of methamphetamine, court records show. The people inside the home were asked to step out as deputies then executed a search warrant.

The affidavit shows they discovered an unknown amount of methamphetamine along with multiple items of drug paraphernalia.

They also discovered a 1-year-old infant who’d been left with a completely filled diaper. Deputies wrote that the diaper was “soaked to the touch full of urine.” No other diapers were found in the home, the affidavit shows.

Deputies think Connelly, the child’s mother, and Teeters would only buy the infant new diapers once the diaper they had on became “extremely full.”

The home was also in filthy conditions, according to deputies. They said dog feces was smeared across the home and covering a bedroom floor. They also found moldy food and drinks scattered across the house.

Three other children, aged 10, 14 and 15, were found living in the home. Deputies said all of the children could have accessed any of the drugs or drug paraphernalia that was seized.

The sheriff’s office suspects the home was a well-known hub for both selling and using controlled substances, the affidavit shows.

The four children were removed from the home and placed into custody with Child Protective Services. Connelly and Teeters were both arrested and lodged in the Saline County Jail.

The pair faces a total of nine charges, and they’re expected to be arraigned on July 23.
