going to be some surveillance cameras
[Music]
that well yeah there um their SE will
reach all the way over there
7eleven but you're you don't remember
him coming in I don't remember seeing
him myself come in I just assume that
all my kids is in that house because
I've
never not got them all out the car
before so yeah and then by me running in
and out with the stuff I just assumed
that he got out the car I didn't know he
was still asleep in my
car and we all was in the house my uncle
even came over here and everything I had
no idea everybody when I asked where the
boys where everybody said they was in
the house sleep already so okay all
right um I don't know what the outcome
of this is going to be there's a
potential that you could be charged with
endangering the health of life of a
child me that he's been sleeping in the
back of possibly for the past 5 hours in
the back seat of my car my back of my
trunk has boxes these moving boxes in
the back of my trunk
okay I get that I'm just I'm just saying
that's that's a potential okay I do have
to notify DCFS of what happened tonight
so they'll probably be in touch with you
um is this a good address for you right
now okay all right I'll be in touch with
you okay all right thank you very much
problem problem mhm all right thanks sh
her car is right
here that car yeah the car that he came
out of it's parked right here I'm not
going to be able to see it do you want
me to come back and pay for that kit hat
I don't know I are you sure I just I
want to pay because he was crying are
you sure so yeah I'm sure because I want
to buy for him because he was crying so
then
you reminded me oh oh don't give
anything which is allergic yeah yeah I
thank you thank
you you want to leave all your property
with her you're going to be in and out
in like 10 minutes completely up to you
I got to search you when you get in here
you don't really don't need anything you
want to just leave your Co with her
then again you're going to be in
April 14th 9:00 in the morning over in
syamore is where you need to go this is
what you are charged with so that's
yours I need two signatures from
you st that you are going to comply with
the stipulations of bond can't leave the
state of Illinois without permission to
the court you got to give written notice
to the clerk of the court of any change
of address within 24 hours of such
change and you can't break any more laws
while you're out on bond if you do do
that they could revoke your bond and you
could be charged with violation of bail
bond
okay this I don't have any record I
don't have anything to traffic I don't
have any cases with DCFS I've never had
a problem I have nine kids and I've
always had my children for my son to not
get out the car and get under a blanket
and me to see other coats in the house
is ridiculous to say that I saw the look
on his face any child in that situation
would have had a look of panic in their
face but to say I felt something for
that there to charge me and I've never
had any I've never been convicted of
anything is redundant to me it's really
stupid because now things are going to
get harder and if really cared about my
kids and how the situation with why put
me a charge when I've never even been in
trouble do you want to read what the
complaint
says at this point I have no choice at
this point the woman was charged with
child endangerment
