.When officials arrived they were met at the front door by dad Charles Garten, age 30, holding a 9-month-old infant in his arms. Garten allowed the officer and DSS officials into the home.
Inside the home police located mom Rebecca Schultz, age 21, hiding in a bedroom closet. According to DSS Schultz is not supposed to have any contact with the infant because of a previous issue.
