Mother Arrested at Harrah's

Did you hear about this?

On Sunday a 41 year old mother was arrested for leaving her nine year old son outside of Harrah's casino by the street while she was inside gambling!

The boy was found sitting outside of the casino just before four in the afternoon.

Quote:
Troopers assigned to the State Police casino unit said the boy told them his mother left him outside while she went inside to gamble.

The mother was identified as 41 year old Yvette Lindsey of New Orleans. She was found inside of the casino gambling and was arrested and booked with child abandonment and contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile.

The troopers found out that the boy had been outside alone for half an hour. The father was contacted and he now has custody.

Boy this sort of thing just burns me! I am all for gambling and having a good time but not at the expense of a child. Thank goodness no harm came to that little boy.

The sad thing of it is, this isn't the first time I've heard of something like this happening.

Not to make light of it, but if she would have stuck to gambling online, she wouldn't be in jail.

Re: Mother Arrested at Harrah's

And with all the sexual predators and kidnappers about, leaving a child unattended anywhere is a very dangerous thing to do.

Having a gambling problem is one thing but when it comes to the safety and security of a child, its completely out of hand when something like this happens.

Re: Mother Arrested at Harrah's

I agree with everyone as well. Reading this type of crap just irritates me to no end. People like this have no business what so ever having children. Children should always come first reguardless of anything else.

I also hope that this women spends a great time deal of time behind bars, but something tells me she wont. Hopefully the father will take better care of this child, because we all know the mother sure couldnt!!
