The case against four adults charged with child abuse and false imprisonment in North Platte last October will have to proceed without statements and interviews given by the defendants because they were not read their Miranda rights after their arrests. Lincoln County District Court Judge Richard Birch suppressed statements and interviews given to Health and Human Services by Lacy Beyer, Ashly Clark, and Samantha and Bryson Eyten after they were arrested October 25. All four were charged with two counts of child abuse and two counts of false imprisonment after police observed two young children sleeping in a wire animal kennel at the mobile home where the defendants lived. The home was full of trash and smelled of urine and feces.
