AUDIO:911 Calls From Child Neglect Case
The 9-year-old told police she had been caring for her siblings since
Saturday, when her mother left. The girl said Koontz went to a party and
had returned home for a few hours Sunday and Monday mornings.She
told police she had stayed home from school Monday to care for her
siblings.Police said the three children were left with food, a
phone and a list of numbers to call in case of emergency.“Something
bad can happen in the blink of an eye, [and] that responsibility falls
solely on the parent,” said Steve Whitley from the Salisbury Police
Department.The girl said she called 911 because she had heard a
noise that startled her.Police described the 9-year-old as very
mature for her age, noting she had fed her siblings and changed their
diapers. She told police her mother had promised to pay her for
baby-sitting.“That's quite a tremendous burden to place on a
child, caring for itself, much less toddlers,” Whitley said.Officers
arrested Koontz when she returned home Tuesday.Koontz called
Channel 9’s newsroom and said she wanted to tell her side of the story,
but decided against an on-camera interview after speaking with her
attorney. Koontz denied leaving the children home alone and said her
mother was supposed to be watching them.Koontz is being held in
the Rowan County Detention Center and was given a $1,500 bond. She’s
scheduled to appear in court June 30.
