Authorities say two baby sitters have been charged with putting five children infested with fleas, bedbugs and lice into the back of a U-Haul truck in Ohio.

Jamie Adkins, 25, and Brian Dekam, 55, were arrested Wednesday in Elyria, Ohio after they were spotted loading the children into the U-Haul in a Speedway gas station parking lot.

The children - ages two, three, four, six and fifteen- all suffered from fleas, bedbugs, lice and some also had ringworm.

Adkins (pictured) and Dekam are charged with child endangerment and both were given personal bonds but can't contact the children, with the exception of the oldest who is Dekam's son.

After being treated for heat exhaustion at University Hospitals Elyria Medical Center, the two-year-old was flown by LifeFlight to Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital.

Captain Chris Costantino said to The Chronicle that the child would stay there until Thursday.

Adkins told police she and Dekam had been caring for the children for several weeks and the children's mother, Kimberly Hull, knew they were being transported in the U-Haul from Cleveland to Elyria.

The sitter told police that Hull said 'Sounds fun, hope the kids have fun.

Adkins described herself as being 'like a godmother to the kids.

She told police that she enjoyed being with the kids because she was unable to have any on her own.

Hull was said to arrive at the Speedway soon after the arrest and there may be additional charges filed against her.

It was reported that firefighters brought toys for the children and the Speedwat employees offered them pizza.

Adkins and Dekam are charged with child endangerment and both were given personal bonds but can't contact the children, with the exception of the oldest who is Dekam's son.

Records don't indicate whether they have attorneys but they are to be back in court on August 10th.
