Baby Starves to Death After Parents Die from Drug Overdose in their Home

An innocent baby was left to die of starvation after her parents had both died in their home after taking an overdose of heroin.

 Jason Chambers, 27, his girlfriend Chelsea Cardaro, and their five-month-old baby Summer were all found dead in their Kernville, Pennsylvania home on Thursday.


Authorities say the parents had been dead for about a week when their bodies were found Thursday. Autopsies Friday confirmed that the infant died several days later from dehydration and starvation. It is believed that the couple died within minutes of each other so they could not call for help.

Authorities said that although overdoses haven't been confirmed, there was evidence of drugs at the scene.

Neighbors believed the family was out of town, because they hadn't been seen since December 11. Cardaro had posted a photo of her with Chambers to Facebook on December 14, with the caption 'The one and only my love of my life'.
