Correct.
That’s when police found the body of the 3-year-old girl, who had apparently been dead “for at least a few weeks,” according to police.
Investigators believe the child had been dead for several days, and the teen and her baby remained in the house with the corpse until Wednesday.
Weeks or days? Just wondering if the parents went on the run before or after the child died
Reports have been that the family left the area many weeks or months ago, either prior to or shortly after the 4 month was born (maybe 2 months ago?) ETA: I think I read reports that the 3 y/o is believed to have passed within the past few days.
I am thinking there may be issues of violence or weapons charges in the Father's criminal history. I wonder if the Mother to all the children is a victim of domestic violence.
RBBMIf the parents were travelling back and forth between Las Vegas and California in the past few months, how does LE know they didn't initially take the 3-year-old with them and then something happened to the child the last time they returned home, so they fled? How do we know the parents didn't leave the teen to care for a dying child after their last trip home?
Why did LE charge the teen with the 3-year-old's death -- did she confess? Is it based on eyewitness reports from neighbors? Might the teen have given a false confession to protect her parents?
IIRC, one article stated that Kellie Phillips was staying with relatives in California when she previously disappeared, so I believe she has family there. I hope that the extended family would report anything amiss with the children. I wonder if they have questioned the whereabouts of the other 2 children.

Authorities suspect the couple may gone back and forth between California and Las Vegas for months as they gradually abandoned the children.
We believe (they) can answer many questions on what led up the death of this child, Patty told KTLA.

They "gradually" abandoned the children? Hmmmm. Maybe they took the teen with them on earlier trips to Cali, until she gave birth. So they probably did take the 3-year-old on earlier trips, too. Did they stop taking the child along because she was sick, injured.....?
I was thinking the very same thing. I think what we know likely only scratches the surface of the atrocity in this case.I'm betting the baby's father is the Dad of the 17 yr. old.
I've been here too long.
Lachaux was arrested for three counts of child abuse with substantial bodily harm or death in connection with the three children (ages 17, 3, and 4 months) abandoned in their North Las Vegas home, and one count of concealing evidence in connection with the death investigation of his 3-year-old daughter while in the custody of her 17-year-old half sister.
also from that same link above:
