A 21-year-old Indiana mother is facing a felony neglect charge after investigators said her 4-year-old daughter was left without adequate supervision while staying with her at a hotel.

The investigation reportedly led to allegations unrelated to what initially brought police to the location, as authorities said they had reason to believe that the mother was soliciting customers for sex work from the room and allowing multiple people inside while her daughter was there. Investigators said they could not determine who was watching the child during those encounters.

According to reports, the police also found evidence of drug activity. They reported that a search of the mother’s cellphone showed that she used the internet to look up methamphetamine and ecstasy. Investigators later said the mother attempted to avoid a drug test by submitting water instead of urine. She allegedly admitted she substituted the sample because she had been smoking marijuana.
