A Florida couple is facing felony charges after their toddler wandered out of their home and was found alone near a busy street in extreme heat while wearing nothing but a soiled diaper.

Late in the morning on August 17, the recorded temperature in South Bexar County was over 100 degrees. A few hours earlier, the mother of a 2-year-old gave her daughter breakfast, and afterwards, they went to lie down together. The woman dozed off, and while she napped, the youngster, who was wearing only a diaper, went outside without her mother’s knowledge. According to reports, a neighbor was driving by and spotted the running around near the road without an adult present. He called his wife to tell her about the situation.

The authorities were notified, and when law enforcement arrived, they reported that the youngster was sitting on the sidewalk in a soiled diaper. The deputies went to the residence where she lives with her parents, and her mother reportedly explained that she hadn’t realized her daughter had gone outside. They searched inside the residence, and it was reported that the dwelling was found in an unclean and unsanitary state with garbage, pet excrement, roaches, and rotten food scattered around. The child’s father was not present, so the authorities contacted him and asked him to return home.
