A HUSBAND and wife who found a dog sitter for their puppies, but left their nine-year-old son home to care for his younger autistic brother while they celebrated the new year in Las Vegas, have been arrested.
Jacob Calero and his wife Michelle De La Vega left Calero's sons Joshua, 9, and Jason, 5, at their San Ramon home early on Friday while the newlyweds headed out of town for a five-day trip, police said.
