A Putnam County mother is in jail for leaving her child at home as she vacationed in Las Vegas. Jessica Copeland, 37, is charged with child neglect and animal torment. Deputies say the teen, whose age was not released,

The arrest followed an investigation by the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office, where officers discovered a child left alone for two weeks and several emaciated animals in poor living conditions.

A mom left her teenage son without the “necessities to survive” while she went on vacation to Las Vegas for two weeks, according to Florida authorities.
