"It doesn't matter how much I pour bleach on everything, I just feel dirty, the apartment is just dirty," said Brown.
Brown says she thought her living situation would improve after coming from a shelter, but the unlivable conditions date back to the week she moved in.
“I thought I was supposed to be coming to a home and that’s when the kitchen cabinet fell on me while I was putting my things away," said Brown.
This past spring, she says her autistic son was hurt in the apartment on the floor tiles that are lifting.
“My son has gotten hurt to where he fractured his knee and he had to be in a cast and on crutches," said Brown.
She has made efforts to fix the flooring with her own money after she said she is unable to get into contact with management.
News 12 crews witnessed Brown call her management company, and the phone went straight to voicemail.
“Rats and huge flying water bugs that apparently bite. My son has gotten bit by spiders, I’ve gotten bitten by spiders," said Brown.
Over the last three years, Brown says she has had to put garbage bags over the broken windows, set out traps from the rodents and bugs in her apartment.
“What more has to happen to either one of us before you see that this apartment is a death trap?" she begged.
Brown told News 12 she just wants her management company, Wavecrest, to move her and her son to a livable apartment.
