Tanisha Monique Howard, of Marietta, allegedly left two 5-year-olds and an 8-month-old inside a room at the Howard Johnson hotel on Delk Road, according to an arrest warrant obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Neither 5-year-old could remember the last time they had eaten, and no baby formula was found for the infant, the warrant states.

“In addition, there was a burnt marijuana cigarette in the hotel room,” the warrant states. “There were condoms on the floor. There were used diapers on the floor. There was feces in the toilet. There were cigarette butts on the floor.”
