An Ohio woman is in legal trouble after reports emerged that she left her seven children unattended in a vehicle while she visited a gambling facility.
Racqual Hicks, who is 37 years old, was arrested on Thursday and entered a not guilty plea on Friday in response to seven counts of child endangerment.
Law enforcement officials revealed that Hicks was at Luna’s Internet Cafe, where she allegedly left her children—who are aged 15, 13, 10, 6, 2, 1, and 11 months—in the car for approximately 40 minutes.
Additionally, it was noted that Hicks was operating the vehicle with a suspended license, and some of the children were not securely fastened in car seats.
Following her arrest, Hicks was released on her own recognizance and instructed to wear a GPS monitoring device.
Details regarding a future court date have not yet been disclosed.
