My husband and I left our children in the care of our neighbors, while we went for a drive around the neighborhood, garbage night. We were gone for about 6 minutes when a cop pulled us over. Husband called neighbors to tell them we got pulled over so we might be longer getting home. Asked what the situation was all about, told that they had received a call and someone had reported our children being neglected. Husband told him that our neighbors were watching the kids, he was then cuffed and we were brought in. We explained that our neighbors were watching our children; they were both in bed asleep. I was then brought to another room, filled out a statement, charged with two counts of child neglect, brought into the same room as my husband,who told me that cop had contacted our neighbors &were told that they were in fact watching the kids. Husband was charged with the two counts of neglect.Neighbor was arrested for child abandoment cause he left fora minute? Our houses are connected?
