They are the ones that starved their handicapped daughter.
Parents Of Starved Teen Suing Phila. Officials
PHILADELPHIA (AP) The parents charged along with city workers in the starvation death of a bedridden teenager have sued Philadelphia officials in her death.
A prosecutor blasts Andrea and Daniel Kelly for trying to profit from their daughter's August 2006 death.
Andrea Kelly is charged with murder in the death of her 14-year-old daughter, Danieal, who suffered from malnutrition and severe bedsores. The father, Daniel Kelly, is charged with endangerment.
Several workers from the city's Department of Human Services are also charged for failing to monitor the child's welfare.
The plaintiffs lawyers say the suit, filed this month, could benefit the victim's siblings. They say the parents could be barred from any damage award if they are convicted.
