Come >> [music] >> here, baby. You hate my life. Take me TO JAIL. STOP. IT HURTS. This hurts. [laughter] >> In a world full of pressure, adults sometimes [music] lose focus at the most critical moments. >> Yeah. Cover yourself in me going to jail today for child. >> Okay, that's fine. I ain't never been in trouble before. >> A child's world is simple. An adult's world is not. When these two worlds collide, the police highlight the responsibilities of adults. A single thoughtless action, a car left under the midday sun, and a parent leaving everyone wondering, was this a mistake or serious oversight? >> She brought a kid outside. She came back in. She brought she came outside again, but I wasn't aware if she like came back in or not again. On July 19th, 2024, police were dispatched to the parking lot of Regal Cinema in Lake City, [music] Florida. After a report of a 2-year-old girl left in a car without adult supervision, the outside temperature reached 34° C, 93° [music] F. The air conditioning was off and the doors were locked. All clear signs of potential risk for a young child. Police arrived promptly, opened the car, and coordinated with a rescue team to ensure the child's safety. And my siblings just got here and I had to go get my phone. >> You got a uh punch. She's been there for like 30 minutes already. >> You got one. Go ahead. >> I know. Baby, >> go other side. Other side. Other side. Is that fire? Fire. Child's been in the car for about 30 minutes. Uh vehicle's not running in the heat. Come here, baby. >> You saying it's 30 minutes, ma'am? >> Hey, come here. >> Why would you wait 30 minutes to call us? >> Okay. >> I was trying to get her to open. >> I know. Come here, baby. I didn't have my phone. >> Yeah, you guys can go ahead and go with it. >> You can hang tight for a second. Talk to this officer right here. He's going to get some information from >> go. You need to go get her 43. >> Yeah. Degree of annoyance. She waited 30 minutes to call. Like what? >> 30 minutes. >> 30 minutes. >> 30 minutes in the car. >> No AC. >> No AC, no nothing. Why? >> She said she she was trying to get her to unlock the door and she left her phone in the theater and she didn't want to run back in to get it. >> Are you serious? >> So So serious right now. >> Is she hot to the cut? So EMS is saying she's she's she's >> Yeah, we will document and report. >> Yeah. >> We got her already. >> Even more concerning was [music] the parents reaction. She showed little visible worry as her child was taken to the hospital, speaking [music] calmly and acting as if nothing serious had happened. >> Can I go around this way? >> I don't know if it's open. You can you want to stand? It's not open. They're trying to keep this. There's AC in there. They're trying to keep the air inside cuz she's hot. >> I just wanted to make sure cuz I know I didn't call instantly cuz I was trying to get her to open the door. I didn't have my phone on me. My phone was stuck inside the theater. And >> what do you mean stuck? Like >> like it was inside. I didn't have nobody was out here to help me like call or anybody. And she was fine. Like she was okay in the beginning. >> So the theater's open. Why would you not walk up to the window right there and tell them to call 911 for you? cuz I was trying to get her to open the door cuz in the beginning she was fine. She was laughing. She was playing. I was like, >> but after 30 minutes and over 100 degrees, how do you think that's going to affect her? Do you understand what I'm saying? You understand what I'm getting at? >> I understand what you're saying. I understand what you're getting at. But I'm trying to tell you it's >> My first name is T I O R. She so she's up here at the theater for whatever reason. I'm assuming to watch a movie. She herself in the car. So instead of and her phone is already inside the theater somehow, but the baby never made it into the theater. So baby locks herself inside the car. So instead of calling 911 immediately or going to someone help from the window, she tries to get the baby to unlock the door. So baby's not unlocking the door. So, she doesn't want to leave the baby to go inside to get her phone to call 911. Doesn't want to walk up to the window to get the concentrated to call 911. So, instead waits 30 minutes with this child in this not running hot car >> standing there at the window trying to talk to baby and unlocking the door. >> So, her phone is up there. >> Her phone's in the theater. She has it now. I think it's I think No, it might be her wallet. But yeah, 30 minutes talked to EMS. The baby was obviously in distress. The baby was screaming, crying. Maybe it's hot to the touch. Maybe one. >> You can't GET MY BOY ON THE DAMN DOOR. >> YEAH, we had the window. >> She's hot. She was Yeah, she's she's in the back there working on the truck. >> Yeah, she she was pretty hot. 20 minutes. >> Yeah. Straight up. >> She's so non acting like it's nothing. Like her story is making sense to her. She can't even realize. >> Hey, for the report, you want to ask dispatch to get a the current temperature outside to put it in the call for you. >> Yes. Just ask the radio. >> They transport. >> Okay. >> I got to I'm going to have to go. Oh, shoot. Absolutely. Absolutely. >> I get in my truck to go see her. >> Who is Is this This is your son or who he is? >> That's my brother. >> This is your brother? Yes. >> Is there another adult here with the car? >> No. >> Please. No. Not right now. Not right now. About to go ahead and have him hook her up cuz she's getting more agitated. I don't want any issues. She's 100% sure needs to go to jail. >> What do you think? >> Yeah, do that. >> You want to go ahead and advise her that she's going to be 10:15 and >> Yeah. Go ahead. Turn off. Gosh. >> Yeah. Did you me going to jail today for >> Okay, that's fine. Is anybody So she was inside with the baby and brought the baby out to the car >> halfway through the movie or something like what was that? >> That's what I'm But when they started telling me I was like hold on cuz this is some pertinent information. >> You going to need tug man. Hold on. >> Well, he's getting a number for the child's father. >> Okay, we need parents for them other two as well cuz they only 12 and 12 and 13 or 12 and 14. According to police, the parent went in [music] and out of the theater multiple times and on the last occasion left the car keys inside without the child. >> So, she brought the baby in or >> I did not witness any of it, but I asked them if they saw anything and so they did say they saw some stuff. So, >> I'm assuming they were watching a movie. They came out to the lobby kind of deal. The kid was kind of like walking around the lobby and stuff. So, I noticed that she brought a kid outside. She came back in. She brought she came outside again, but I wasn't aware if she like came back in or not again. >> So, when she came out, she had the baby with her. >> Did she come back in with the baby or was the baby >> first time? No, she came back in again. Not with the baby at all. >> Okay. Did she ever say anything to y'all? >> Never mentioned like >> she didn't she didn't notice us at all. Like, she >> Okay. Did she look like she was in a panic or anything like that or didn't look like she was in any type of distress? Were the other children the other kids, those two older ones, were they with y'all when that happened or with her when that happened? I'm sorry. They were not Were they still in the movie or >> I do not I don't recall seeing >> I saw the boy in the green shorts walk out like twice but didn't see a child >> and none of them said >> none of them said anything to us. They kind of just were walking in for hours all the time. Like I saw them standing next to their car and I'm thinking it looked from where I was. It looked like the windows down. They were chitchatting with whoever was in the vehicle. So I'm thinking nothing of it cuz that happens all the time. So >> what was the time frame there? >> That would have been about 30 minutes ago that I saw the boy walking in and out. Huh? >> When was the last time you seen the child her she walked out with the child? >> I could guess 20 30 minutes. I don't know. >> Probably what she said about 30 minute timelapse. The baby was and the baby was already hot to the touch. So >> that's been there for a baby inside the the movie theater and she sent her brother out here back to go check on >> that's what that's so >> sorry. Let me walk away real quick. So basically, um, this lady, she's in there watching, what I'm gathering is she's in there watching the movie, and I'm thinking that maybe the baby was showing out during the movie. So, and it's a little baby. She's maybe she's about to turn. So, she brings the baby out here to the car um, and puts the baby in the car unintentionally. I think unintentionally locks the baby in the car, but a 30inut time lapse goes by where she is trying to coach the the 2-year-old, the one-year-old to unlock the door, which is not going to happen cuz she's one. And the from what the theater is saying, she had come back into the theater twice after the baby was already locked in the car. Did not appear to be any did not appear to be under any type of distress and never once asked him to summon for help for the baby that was in the car. And the baby was obviously in distress. The baby was obviously in distress. Yes, she was sweaty. She was beat red. She was Oh, no. She's going to jail right at like 100% going to jail. >> The theater staff confirmed the incident. No one saw her ask for help or show concern. and her initial statement could not be verified. >> Okay. Did she come in and say anything to you or >> Okay. Nothing at all. >> No. Uh she and then walked back into the theater or down the hallway at least. And then she stopped and then she walked back out. >> Yeah. She crying in the theater. So she brought the kid outside to >> Okay. to go to the truck and then from what she states is that she was outside and the door closed. Yeah. cuz she walked out with the baby and then she walked back in and I didn't see the baby. >> Excuse me. Did she go back into the theater? >> I don't know where she went after that. I mean, I know she went down the hallway. >> Okay. So, she completely passed all the way through all the way down the hall. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Did she seem like she was in a hurry or >> No, we just kind of walked back there. She like she looked kind of like her face looked like she was kind of just done >> and exhausted. I don't know. >> Okay. I mean, she never said anything to you or did she ever at any point come up and try to get you guys to call us or No. Okay. >> You seem to walk back in. Did you see her again after that or the kids that were? >> I didn't know that they were with her, but I did see a couple that look like they're teenagers maybe like kind of run out. >> I don't think they were with her. >> About how long between when she went back there and when they all came right out? There's maybe like 5 to 10 minutes. >> Okay. >> I don't know. I'm better than Yeah. And then they kind of were in and out here a few times. >> All right. >> I knew there was a new Fantastic 4 movie, but >> Okay. Okay. So, all right. So, this based off of this, if you could just just kind of give me another just another like explanation of Yeah. what you seen, what what you saw. >> What a Yeah, that's just basically about it. She walked in here with She was over there, walked out here. baby was like messing around with the toys and stuff. >> Okay. >> She uh I noticed she went back when she went outside with the baby. She came back in and out like I think once or twice, >> right? >> No baby with her the uh first time. >> Okay. >> I didn't know where the baby was. I don't know. I didn't know if she went to go watch her movie again. >> And that's kind of all I picked up. She seemed incredibly neutral, so I didn't really think anything was up or anything kind of. >> Okay. And if you had to estimate about the same like the time frame >> again about 30 40 minutes ago kind of deal. >> Okay. >> After the incident, police [music] contacted the child's father to pick her up. He mentioned that the parent sometimes struggles with decision-m when under stress [music] and can lose patience. >> Sorry. Step out. Walk over to their table. Jere M R apostrophe Jackson. I mean, not apostrophe. M E R R I H I Jackson. >> The mother has been charged with [music] child. Under Florida law, she could face up to 5 years of probation or prison along with a $5,000 fine. Hopefully [music] after this story, every parent will pay closer attention to even the smallest decisions as children's safety must always come first. From a swerving tire track, the story of a mother struggling with her own stress began to emerge in small details. >> Well, it seems like a little bit dangerous to GO FROM 0 TO 36. ON September 29th, 2024, Woodstock, Illinois, police received a call about a woman driving erratically, changing lanes, and veering off course, creating potential risk for herself and others. When police arrived, they found two children asleep in the car. The mother, behaving unusually, still insisted she was fine. >> Good evening. How are you? >> Hi.
