FATHER ARRESTED FOR LEAVING 5 KIDS HOME ALONE WHILE HE WENT TO WORK

Victor Alonzo King, a North Carolina father of 5, is in jail facing child abuse charges for allegedly leaving his kids at home all day while he went to work. According to court documents, the children’s ages are listed as 8, 7, 5, 3 and 1.
He pleaded with a judge this week, explaining he needed to return to work because he’s the sole provider for his family since his wife is very ill. “Two weeks ago my wife was diagnosed with stage four cancer. And I’m practically like her only way to pay for all of her medical bills,” he said. “So I was wondering if I could get out early and I can still work so I won’t lose my job so I can still pay for her medical expenses.”
