And that's crucial to know to the appropriate steps can be taken to help this child. And after the body cam, I'll quickly explain the health risk that infants face in these hot vehicles.

I mean, yeah, I guess I wasn't trying to do anything. How long was he left in the car with that? I know the car was running, but how long was he left in the car? What time was it? Uh 2:56. Um like maybe 20 minutes. What time did you walk in that casino? I don't remember. I didn't My phone was dead. So what was the reasoning for going into the casino and leaving him by himself? One, I had to pee. And two, I was trying to find his dad. Why are we trying to find his dad? Because he was supposed to be Have you guys been bringing him inside at all? Yeah. You've been here since You said you got here when you got off work. I've been here the whole time. So, how did you get here with your with your with his dad? If he's been here since 8:00 this morning. He hasn't been here. How long has he dad been here? I think they've been here since about 8:00 this morning. The car was running. The kid was left by himself. She came running out at us when we pulled up. So, they're looking to see how long he's been by himself. They said she got here with her boyfriend and she said something about how he's been here since 8:00. She's been off work since 7:00 this morning and she's still wearing her scrubs from 7:00 this morning. She doesn't know what time she got in there cuz her watch is now dead. Are you looking still? Yeah. A quick review shows that she got out at 9:30. Well, she keeps saying that she didn't get here when he got here, but then how she got here was him. So, it's not loud enough. And I couldn't hear. Was that car running? I can't hear with the music running, but it was still really right. Yeah, still warm. There's air flow, but still not full. I'm sweating just standing out here. So, he's been here since 9:30. [Music] We'll talk to her again and see what she says now. They're saying since 9:30 this morning from the cameras. Well, she says her husband came, right? and she came with him, but then she she her story is bouncing back and forth. She said she came here with him, but then she didn't, but she did. She said she came from work. She got off work at 7 o'clock this morning and came straight here. They said the only thing they can see is she got here at 9:30 and that's all they can tell from they didn't look like she ever came out. Even if it was just 20 minutes, that's 20 minutes at a high crime area in a parking lot with a running car with an infant who can't feed itself because it has a tube. So, it has not around. We ain't seen him. Okay, I'm going to speak completely honest with you. That's all I know how to be. This is probably one of the most sophisticated camera systems in the United States with this casino. They're saying you went at about 9:30 this morning. I have not been back out. Yes, I have. Why would the camera show you? I did. You did? What time was that at? We don't know. You guys, the reason we're being straight up honest with you is because this this facility is so sophisticated. They read my face and know everything about me, even though I never been here before. So, they know everything. They have facial recognition, all kinds of fancy stuff. So, they have timestamps. They have two people that all they do all day long is watch cameras. They've already rerounded since they found your child in the car alone. Said you got out of that car at 9:30 and walked this morning and walked inside and you never came back out until you saw law enforcement and security out here. So, is that what's the case or are we are you what's what's the deal? Cuz I've been honest with you the whole time about what's going on and I just I would appreciate the honesty back. You have a gambling addiction or something like that. We can work with you. You look like you got something on your chest that you're you're wanting to tell us, but you're upset to tell us about. Is there something you want us to know about? I'm just going through a lot. You think you might have a gambling problem? No. It's okay if you do. I'm not here to judge you if you do. No. I mean, I don't think so. I just realized that. Did you gamble a little bit when you got here? You want to stay in the hospital, get him checked out? Do you want him to be checked out at the facility or anything? By the way, he's safe. He's been helping you. My only concern he's been in that car since 9:30 this morning. His dad wasn't out here. They didn't say. They didn't say, but they said you were They just said you were out here at 9:30 and seems like time flew by and we lost track of time. The dad never came out or anything, right? Okay. That's what she's asking. Baby might be going to the hospital, especially if he's been in car since 9:30 this morning. Well, I reviewed it and I had both of them checked from the front to the back and the back to the front. I didn't see any interaction with the vehicle from 9:30. Said the same thing. Jason, do me a favor and face my car real quick. Turn around for me. Okay, hold on. Turn around. Hold on. Turn around. Put your hands behind your back. We will talk here as soon as I get done with this. Have a seat in the back of my car. Do you have any guns, knives, weapons, needles, anything like that on you? Okay, I see Becker real quick. Can you just check my phone? Do you have a diaper bag in there we can have for him? Yeah, it's just a great It's a great Yeah, it looks like a backpack. We'll get it. Are you okay with me going and getting that? Yeah. Okay. I'm not going to search your car. I just want to find a good diaper bag for There's nothing in there anyway. But um what's going to happen to Ryland? Well, we are getting someone to be with him right now. Like we are working on that right now. Someone. Who is it? One of my friends. Your friends? How about your mom, his mom? Me and my mom aren't talking. Do you have a grandma or anything like that? No, my grandma's gone. Okay. Just I'm sorry to hear that. I completely understand that. There's all your stuff right there. Okay. Okay. Can you tell me what's going to happen? Right now, you're under arrest for child neglect. Okay. You're going to go to Rogers County Jail. You're going to be booked in. You'll see a judge as soon as they can. Okay. But the meantime, we are calling people that are state workers that will be with your child the entire time. I'm not saying they're going to take your kid away from you, but they will be with him at the hospital cuz he's been without fluid since 9:30 this morning, and they want to make sure your child is going to be healthy and safe. He Okay, can I explain something so they know? What's up? He eats overnight. He has continuous food that runs overnight. He only eats for um enjoyment during the day. Okay, I'll let him know. It's not like he was just I get you. Go ahead and hop your hop your legs in real quick so I can I'm going to find out as soon as you get in. I can find out. Uh, sure. It doesn't matter. But she said he eats at night as a continuous drip, I'm assuming. And she said he only eats for pleasure during the day because I guess he has a feeding tube. So that's what she she just wanted me to tell you guys that.
