“After letting her 7-year-old son walk from their home to a park to play, a Florida mother faces up to five years in jail for child neglect. Nicole Gainey, 34, was arrested on July 26 after her son, Dominic, was found by police alone in a park less than a half-mile from her Port St. Lucie home. According to the report, Gainey told the officer that she let her son go to the park alone once or twice a week. The arresting officer said that Gainey had failed to provide her son with care and supervision by allowing him to cross the street and go to the park alone. Gainey was arrested on a felony child neglect charge and taken to jail.”
