Mother arrested for leaving son alone in filthy home for 12 days

A Carson City woman was arrested Friday afternoon after deputies found her high-school-aged son had been left alone for 12 days in a home filled with trash and pet waste, but little food.

Kelly Pray, 34, was arrested for gross misdemeanor child neglect.

Deputies were alerted by school officials who were suspicious of the boy being absent from class. What they found at the home in the 3000 block of Sunrise Drive left them fighting for air to keep from vomiting.
