Florida Woman Arrested for Leaving Four Children Home Alone During Work Trip
Irene Miller, a 50-year-old Florida woman, was arrested on four counts of child neglect after leaving her four children aged 9 to 14 home alone during a six-day work trip to Las Vegas. She arranged for a babysitter to assist the children with school mornings and check-ins but not overnight supervision. The case came to light when one child was injured at home, prompting emergency services. Authorities emphasize that Florida law does not specify a minimum age for children to be left alone, but welfare recommendations advise against it before age 12.
