No, it's not. But I just don't understand why y'all can't just send me home. CBI is going to come to my house regardless.

And so when you approached the car, >> so when I come across there, I I had the water in my hand. So when I was like, "What's going on?" And that's when he was like, "There's kids in the car." So I was like, you know, everybody standing around. >> And when you looked inside the car, what did you see? >> So when I I just pulled the door cuz I already they was already saying it was kids in the car. I pulled the back door open and as soon as I opened up the door, I seen that pink and gray car seat. It was like flipped >> almost like if the back seats were folding down. >> The the back seat was down. So, but it's down, but it's not. It can't go all the way down because they got obstructing it. The car seat is obstructing that. And she's like, you can tell she must have been on had to be that side of the car because the way her body was, remember, this how I'm pulling her out. So, if you see how the car parked, I'm pulling her across. >> The first little baby was down on the floor when I first opened the >> So, who was the first child? You you >> The one that I had sitting in the with the poop on him, the one that I set inside the basket. Okay. >> I set him in there first. >> So, you grabbed him out first. I picked him up and put him in a shopping cart. >> So, yeah. And almost like kind of like cuz he's soaking wet like I'm like the [ __ ] >> And was he sweating? >> Sweating, cold, drenched. >> He seemed like almost out of breath. >> He was looked like he was about to go to sleep. So that's what the man was like, "Oh, I think they tired." And I was like hot. Like you could tell. >> So I immediately I had just brought a cold bottle of water. I opened up the water. I immediately started giving him water and I put it on the back of his neck. You know, all the pressure points I put on his neck. And then when I pulled the little girl out and I was like, "Oh [ __ ] it's another baby in here." So, as you told the little girl, come out and keep them. They're all They're all in a trunk. Correct. >> Correct. They're come I'm putting right. >> So, you pull the first one >> on the floor like he was down on the floor like >> So, you reach from the back seat into the trunk, grabbed the baby out from the trunk, put him on the seat, my body kind of in like Yeah. So, when I did, I had to kind, you know, to grab him, pick him up. >> And then you after you put him in the shopping cart, >> I put him in the And then I put him in the front of the shopping cart. >> And you saw a little girl >> and then the little girl I pul cuz I pulled the little girl out. She was uncovering him. That's why they know it was another baby in there. >> That the second one I took out. >> So when she came out, you saw another baby. >> And that's why I was like, "Oh, it's another baby." And he's drink covered in sweat. They're poor weak. You can see the diapers diapers filthy. They wet. >> Did they have clothes on? >> No, they don't have no clothes on. And that's why we was like, "What the?" They have no clothes on, but they got a bleach chemical smell to them. So I put them in there and then that's when I can say the lady with the purple dress started talking and she was like trying to I guess she thought that I was on her side and I told her no I'm I don't know them like no this is not right. These kids are babies like these kids are sw let me go in the in the store. I said well yeah you can go ahead and do that. She was trying to make them go stop calling the police and then the lady with the beard was getting sassy with him and that's why I was like no that don't work like that. One thing about me. >> So the lady with the beard came out before the mother. >> She was like that's my friend. She went going up on her. She's like they she beat him. She's 7 years old. She old enough to be in the car by us. Stay old enough to be in the car. And I'm like youing serious with the the car off. >> So another thing I want to like >> kind of confirm when you came up to the vehicle before anybody else had came, did you notice the car was on or off? >> It was off. >> Completely off. The engine wasn't running. >> I The little girl had the phone. So immediately when I saw a phone in her hand, I said, "Oh, can let's call to call your mom." I said, "Oh, you got the phone and the keys to the car?" >> She's like, "Yeah." >> So she had the keys on. >> Little baby got the keys. So the lady with the purple took the little girl with the keys. The little girl had the keys in her hand the whole time, but they already in the trunk. >> Yeah. >> Car was not on. >> So you would say that there was definitely more than like a 30 minute period that they were inside that car by themselves. >> Had to listen. >> Based on the time I pulled my I don't pulled up. >> Yeah. >> I saw them standing in front of the store. I'm in Walmart 25 I'm g say 30 minutes we talking picking up my items waiting in line to pay for my stuff >> and I'm outside walk over there to my car within 2 minute time frame like I say my phone rang 3:35 but they're already over here on the phone with you guys so make it make sense >> okay so you left them in the car by themselves >> no so why did she rip out the babies out of the car seat >> rip out what >> did you go inside >> she only ripped out the seven the door was so what happened was I seen >> she's the one that took I open when I open I'm just show you what it looked like when I open it. >> Like this >> I seen one baby which was him >> first. >> I pulled him out and then that's when I realized it was another baby. >> So but you seen them in the car by themselves. >> Yeah. They was then she I got her out and when when I pulled her out that's when I seen that one and I >> So it must have been when she came to get me to get my car. >> No. So no, because in the car alone, >> but they were alone for long enough for multiple people to call. >> So when she got hurt, that lady >> got hurt. So we was like, let's just go try to find the mom cuz they was already on the phone with police, >> you know. I said, >> so with all this being said, you left your kids alone. >> Leave them alone. I went in the store to give her the car. I went in there to give her my bank card. No, no, no. But you have to understand, you left them alone long enough for multiple people to call for their wellbeing. It is what it is, right? So, lesson learned. We're not going to do that again because if she would have put the car in drive or put the car in reverse, that's a rem that's a freaking removal, right? Seus will be called. You cannot do that. I'm sorry. It is what it is. I understand you're trying to do whatever it is that you got to do, but mom to mom, it's 90° outside. You left them in the car long enough, multiple people call 911. It cannot happen. Not only that, you left them in there long enough that someone was able enough to remove them from the car, have fire rescue come, then have the police come. That's too long. Do you understand where I'm coming from? Okay. It just it can't happen. It's South Florida. People kidnap kids all the time, and that's an easy lick. So before we go, I need to make sure those car seats are installed correctly and they can be placed inside. >> He saw me standing out there in the car. I just went to go use the bathroom. >> So you were here at the car. >> Yes, I guess cuz I wasn't right there. He feel like they buy their stuff. So I told the young lady to watch them while I go get them off. >> It's just a bunch of nonsense. >> Don't make no sense. They just do too much right here. >> So were you the one that was watching the kids? >> Yes. >> She went inside. Yeah, I got the kids and everything. He said, "Oh, no. They didn't." Do you mind me asking, "Why did you take the sevenyear-old inside?" >> She was right here watching them. I asked her to watch them for me while I go get her just did. >> No, I was watching them. I told her to watch them for me while I go get her cuz I'm like, "He's doing too much. She making a big scene for no reason." >> You were watching them, too. >> Was the car on or off? >> The car was off. I had the key. >> They must have cut the key off. Yeah, they making a big sit. He kept call taking pictures out the tag and everything like what? I I'm so upset with him. >> How long were you guys gone for with the car? >> We was not gone. I was here. She ran inside to get some shoes and get some clothes. >> This don't make no sense. This just don't make no damn sense. I'm telling him I'm here while he on the phone with 911. Then he took pictures of the tattoo. Oh, my girlfriend said they byel. >> Yes. >> And you were just outside of the car. >> Okay.
