The Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney's office filed three misdemeanor endangering the welfare of a child charges against a Webb City woman who left her children alone with no one to care for them for several hours Saturday.
But she did leave them with a bag of chips to eat, according to the probable cause statement.
Nancy Esmeralda Solis and her children were staying with a woman in her Webb City woman when Solis allegedly left the children alone. The woman told Webb City Police she left her apartment at 7:30 a.m. to go to work and when she returned at 5:45 she found one child asleep on the couch and the other two in the bedroom.
"Some of the children had soiled diapers," the woman said.
Another woman was in a second bedroom and was passed out and unable to care for the children, the statement said.
Solis returned to the apartment while police were investigating and said she left the children with the woman who was passed out. The woman told police she did not remember being asked to care for the children.
From the probable cause statement:
Nancy stated she was at work earlier in the day, but when {she} returned to the apartment {she} smelled like intoxicants.
All three children were under the age of 7.
Solis is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday morning in Jasper County Circuit Court.
Her bond is set at $5,000 cash or surety.
