A Fort Walton Beach woman was charged with felony child neglect without great harm after her 5-year-old child was found nude on the roof of the residence.
Caroline Sue Humphrey, who is 44, was intoxicated and unaware that her child was on the roof, according to her Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office arrest report.
A witness notified her and retrieved the child off the roof with a ladder.
While the deputy was interviewing witnesses and Humphrey, he noted that she allowed her child to climb onto a truck and stand in the window of the vehicle, hanging onto the side.
When the deputy told Humphrey to get her child off the vehicle, she replied, “Children will climb.”
