A Tulsa mother pleaded guilty to child neglect Thursday, after one of her children was found locked inside a dog crate last November.

Erin Lewallen faces up to five years in prison when she's sentenced in late June.

Police say they found her 22-month-old daughter inside the cage, her 3-year-old wandering alone, naked outside in the cold, and another 3-year-old inside, naked and asleep in a bed next to her husband, who was passed out on drugs and alcohol.

Her husband, William Lewallen, is scheduled for trial in October.
