Jessica Sanland: Just Another Unfit Mother in Florida



Gainsville, Florida

On her Facebook profile, Jessica Sanland likes taking photos of her feet. But, that's for another day.

She also seems to be having a great life, according to a recent posting:

So right now my life is at the bottom but Im on the uphill

That was, until she got the late-night craving for donuts and beer.

Gainesville cops say Jessica Renee Sanland left her kids, age 4 and 7, alone in her apartment while she went to Dunkin' Donuts and a nightclub, according to an arrest report.

Around midnight a neighbor found the 7-year-old, who was screaming because of an earache, wandering by a pool, at Sandland’s home, the Villa Ravine Apartments at 1500 NW 16th Ave. The 4-year-old child was found in the apartment, according to the report.

Sanland, 27, returned home after being contacted by officers and smelled of alcohol, according to the arrest report. She told police she had gone to Dunkin’ Donuts and to Gator City, where she had a beer.

Police reported that two prescription pill containers, a bottle of cold medicine, a half empty beer can and a samurai sword were left within the children’s reach inside the apartment.

A caseworker with the Florida Department of Children and Families was called and decided to leave the children with a roommate when Sanland was arrested.

Records indicate that a similar incident with Sanland was reported in 2010, the arrest report states. The child in that case was found wandering outside her apartment in a diaper.
