Today's winner is Sarah Louise Mary Bracamontes. She gets the award for the following.
At 5:20 p.m. Tuesday, a neighbor reported three small children had been left alone for about two hours in a town home at 6331 Sunset Bay Circle, Hillsborough County sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Carter said.Leave your three toddler children alone for 6 hours in order to go shopping. Not mother of the year material. If you read carefully, the children were doing some paint work with their bodily discharges. Maybe Sarah Louise Mary Bracamontes having to clean that crap up is enough punishment, but I still name her today's Knucklehead of the Day.When deputies arrived, they found three toddlers locked in separate bedrooms with nothing more than a "sippy cup" provided for food, Carter said.
The children had soiled themselves, she said.
They were not clothed, and the girl was covered with her own waste, according to an arrest report. The walls and carpets of two bedrooms were smeared with feces.
Authorities contacted the owners of the home, who live out of state, and learned that their daughter was the children's mother, Carter said.
At 9:20 p.m., Sarah Louise Mary Bracamontes, 26, returned home and was taken to the sheriff's office on Falkenburg Road for questioning, Carter said. The mother told deputies she had gone shopping at Westfield Brandon mall.

Yep, deserving of the "The Knucklehead of the Day award". Except for the finger painting with body waste. I think most parents have experienced that with a pre toilet trained toddler. Ask my wife sometime about the oldest of our two sons. I let her handle it. She returned the favor to me when our youngest experienced control failure in second grade and I had to go to school because on the phone she said "your son needed you". Heh. Payback is (was) a biotch. We all survived it and has provided fodder for memories when the future daughter in law came around for the obligatory baby pictures and reminiscing. Double hah.

Sheesh, Bill, you gotta stop referring to people like this as "knuckleheads". Knuckleheads cut people off in traffic, butt in line at Starbucks, talk loudly on cell phones in enclosed public places, etc.. There are more aptly harsh labels for people like Ms. Bracamontes in the English language.
