Adult Children Abandoning Parents at Hotels
August 19, 2010
LAKE MARY, Fla. –
Investigators in Seminole County say they've discovered a bizarre problem: adult children are dropping off their elderly parents at hotels and motels, and abandoning them.
"A lot of the local hotels seem to be getting seniors that are just dropped off by their kids," said Officer Zach Hudson of the Lake Mary Police Department.
One man was left at the La Quinta Inn in Lake Mary for several weeks.
"Two different times he fell out of his bed during the midnight shift. We didn't know about it. We had people call up, saying there's a gentleman in this room, he's screaming for help," said Chris Loker of La Quinta Inn.
The problem comes down to money.
