Now this is the kinda stuff that REALLY TICKS me off.
Two-year-old survives almost three weeks alone in a house
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - A 2-year-old left alone for nearly three weeks while her mother was behind bars survived by eating mustard, ketchup, rice and raw pasta, police said.
The toddler was watching cartoons when found by her father, police said Monday. She was suffering from malnutrition and was being treated at Wolfson Children's Hospital, police said.
Dakeysha Lee, 22, was charged Monday with child abuse because she didn't let anyone know that her daughter was alone in her apartment, police said. She was jailed Sept. 10 on unrelated charges.
Ogden Lee, who is separated from the girl's mother, said he talked to her by telephone at the jail Sunday and she said their daughter was with neighbors.
When he got into the apartment, the youngster had dragged food and toys into her mother's bedroom and was lying in a baby's bathtub. She was covered with dried ketchup, Lee said.
"She grabbed me and wouldn't let go of me," Lee said. "It is really a miracle how good a shape my daughter is in. I don't know how she did it."

Some people need to be dealt with.. Severely... This is one..[:(!]
it is good that we meet in the struggle of life or death.. .....it shall be life!
Better to have and not need, than need and not have.
to top it off....why didnt the father follow up on his child's welfare with the neighbors?. took him 3 weeks to check on his kid..seperated or not...sounds like both need to be sterlized and jailed

I read another article about this that stated the father was unaware of his ex being detained. He was unable to reach her for 2 weeks and somehow found out she was in jail...that's when he went to check on his daughter. He had the appt complex manager let him in.

We can't seperate a mother from her child? Ridiculous [:(!].

Dakeysha should be shot. I'll do it.
