- Sunrise police published bodycam footage from the arrest of Emily Sabogal after an Uber driver reported her 3- and 4-year-old children were left in his vehicle.
- Sabogal is charged with one count of child neglect and two counts of child desertion and was released on a $1,500 bond, according to arrest records.
- The driver told officers he waited more than two hours and showed a cup he said smelled of rum, alleging she appeared intoxicated.
- Officers said the toddlers were thirsty and hungry but in good health before locating Sabogal at a shopping plaza roughly two miles away.
- On bodycam, Sabogal denied abandoning the children and cited a dead phone after investigators said she canceled the ride, tipped $10, and failed to return.
