Neighbors are shocked. Although they sometimes heard screams and lately peculiar smells.

The phone has been disconnected at the Swanson home. I guess so.

Thank's for finding that article, WAY more details there.

Check this out from that article:

For Smith, who lives next door to the animal-filled home in Cherokee, now the concern among neighbors is what will happen to the home, now that the animals have been removed.

"This was a half a million dollar home,” Smith said. “Who's going to clean that up? What happens in a situation like this?"

Well, Mr. Smith, while I do feel for your property values, MY CONCERN is for those two little girls and how they will recover from this.
