US military says strike on alleged drug vessel in eastern Pacific kills five people

A Florida mom was arrested and charged with child neglect after she left her four kids home alone for nearly three days while she was in Las Vegas, the local sheriff reported Monday. Irene Miller was busted after a dispatcher received a 911 call on Oct. 21 from one of the kids in the Kissimmee home who reported “that her 9-year-old brother had been injured by a dumbbell that fell on his head,” the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. When the deputies arrived at the residence, they found four children ages 14, 12, 11 and 9 — and no adults watching over them.

The unsigned and unsworn superseding complaint comes just hours before the defendants were due to appear in federal court in Washington, D.C. for a preliminary hearing.

In August, the FBI stopped the former Democratic lawmaker at an airport, seized his electronic devices and raided his Washington DC home as part of the investigation into those allegations.
