Mom is arrested for leaving son, 3, alone for hours while she got cosmetic surgery

Body camera footage captured the moment a Florida mother was arrested in bandages after leaving her young son alone for hours so she could get cosmetic surgery.

Jessica Renteria, 25, was charged with child neglect after Doral Police found her three-year-old son wandering an apartment complex on the 8400 block of Northwest 104th Avenue on June 27.

Surveillance video captured Renteria leaving her Airbnb rental apartment around 10 a.m., then several hours later her son walked out the door carrying a cell phone, reported WSVN.

Neighbors called the police when they found the boy in the halls, and body camera footage shows officers working to find his family.

'Hey, little buddy, what's your name?' an officer said. 'Do you know where you live? Do you know where Papi and Mami are?'

Cops asked neighbors if they had seen the child before or know who his parents were.

'You said you saw him right here?' an officer said to one person. 'My neighbor saw him there. He was sleeping,' the neighbor responded.

'Hello, by any chance, are you missing a kid?' an officer asked another resident.

One person is heard on camera comparing the situation to Ohio mother Kristel Candelario who left her 16-month-old daughter home alone in a playpen for 10 days last summer so she could go on vacation.

'This is like the girl, the lady, that left her daughter to go on vacation,' an officer said.

Police eventually found Renteria several miles away at a surgery center. Video shows her being arrested in the back of a cop car wearing a robe with bandages wrapped around her head.

Arrest documents obtained by NBC Miami state that Renteria claimed a friend was supposed to watch her son - which her friend denies.

'He [the friend] knows the defendant but at no point in time was he told to take care of a juvenile,' court documents said.

Renteria appeared in court for a bond hearing in June where she became emotional while wearing an orange jumpsuit with her hair in long braids when the judge admonished her.

'I mean honestly, if she had time to go take care of her own personal issues at a cosmetic surgery center without regard to the child, I'm concerned,' the judge said.

She was released from jail on June 28 on a $1,000 bond. She was a hearing scheduled for September 24 and a trail date of December 2.
