Authorities: Woman Leaves Kids Alone in Car as She Gambles at Pennsylvania Casino

Milady Borda faces 3 child endangerment charges after police say she left kids in a car while she gambled at the Wind Creek Bethlehem

Authorities say a New Jersey woman left three young children alone in a car for two hours while she gambled at a Lehigh Valley Pennsylvania casino.

Milady Borda is facing three counts of child endangerment.

Authorities say surveillance cameras at the Wind Creek Bethlehem casino recorded the 38-year-old Elizabeth woman taking the children — ages 8, 3, and 11 months — to her car shortly before 10 p.m. Saturday. They say she then left them alone in the car, which was not turned on, and then gambled inside the casino for about two hours.

It didn't appear that the children were harmed.

Court records on Tuesday didn't list an attorney for Borda, who was released from jail after posting bail Monday.

The casino had no comment on the matter.
