Detroit family in hospital 30+ times after living in black mold for over a year

A Detroit single mom and her three kids say they’ve been living among black mold for over a year. They don’t have the money to move, and her cries for help have been falling on deaf ears, until she called Local 4. Inside Brieanna Powell-Hayes’s upstairs bathroom, black mold lines the base of the shower. She says it’s been 13 months since the city ordered the apartment to evaluate the issue and ensure it was fixed. Powell-Hayes says the mold and additional growths at every corner sent her kids to the hospital time and time again this year for respiratory issues. She showed Local 4 dozens of hospital papers.
