Lisa Cotton, 38, and her son Nazir Millien, eight, were tragically found deceased at their home on Friday after their landlord raised the alarm.

The woman’s father, 71-year-old Hubert Cotton, had received a call from the landlord of the property asking if Lisa ha moved out.

He told the New York Post: “I had been trying to call her for days and she never answered. I figured she didn’t answer me because she didn’t want me to talk to me.”

Concerned, he sent Lisa’s eldest daughter to the apartment to check on them, where she made the tragic discovery.

She found Nazir, who was disabled after being born prematurely and a feeding tube, slumped in his chair.

Hubert explained: “When she came in, [Nazir] was slumped over.”

The young woman then went looking for Lisa but found four-year-old Promise “feeding herself with chocolate” on her mother’s bed.

“She picked her up and ran out and called the police,” Hubert said, with a transcript of the 911 call stating that she had seen “bugs crawling” on Nazir’s body.

It is not known how long the mom and son had been dead before they were found, but neighbors had reportedly been complaining of a foul odor that smelled like “death” for weeks.

Police had completed a welfare check on Tuesday after receiving an anonymous 911 call, but nobody answered the door at the second-floor unit at East 231st Street.

Despite neighbors telling officers thst they hadn’t seen Lisa or her children in two weeks, responding officers had no reason to break down the door as they dod not hear any noises or notice any smells, police sources told the outlet.
