+ Four adults jailed; child removed
A 10-year-old child was removed from a Palm Coast home Fiday, Jan. 21, after four adults were arrested.
Flagler County Sheriff’s deputies served a warrant on Thomas Ksiezopolski at his home at 20 Rockne Lane, which had been under surveillance. When deputies entered the home, they found hypodermic needles, syringes, cocaine and prescription drugs throughout the house.
Deputies described the home as being filthy and that there was insufficient food for a child. Additionally, deputies reported finding rotting food in the cabinets and refrigerator. The Department of Children and Families took custody of the 10-year-old child.
All four adults were transported to the Flagler County Inmate Facility. They were charged with various drug-related charges, as well as child neglect. The four adults are Ksiezopolski, 35; Nina Holley, 27; Kevin Langford, 36; and Lisa Creamer, 39.
“It is tragic that a 10-year-old child had to endure this kind of living condition. No child should be subjected to this type of neglect,” said Sheriff Donald W. Fleming.
