ROCHESTER The parents of nine children found living alone in a gar bage strewn house were spared prison. John Person 45 and Christine Conner 44 were convicted in October of nine misdemeanor counts of endangering welfare of a child and faced up to two years. Judge Frank P Geraci Jr sentenced them to three years probation and six months home confinement, saying the sentence keeps the family intact and reflects their love for the children. The couple were arrested April 4 after social workers found the children aged 10 months to 14 years alone in the ramshackle two story house.
