Bad dad of the year nominee Andrew Sosa left his 4-month-old daughter in the car, covered in vomit and dehydrated, while he went to a Florida strip club, police say. 
 
 Sosa, 21, was arrested and charged with child neglect late Friday when a witness in Fort Myers saw the baby inside a locked car at Lookers strip club, according to the News-Press. The witness flagged down an officer, who was forced to smash a window to get the baby out when he couldn't find a caretaker nearby. 
 
 The baby was reportedly sweating and sick. She was taken to a nearby hospital to be treated for dehydration, NBC-2 in Fort Myers reports. 
 
 Meanwhile, Sosa was allegedly at Lookers. Police say he left the victim in the car for more than three hours, but the baby's uncle refutes the claim. Corey Peterson says the baby was only in the car for half an hour and has "bounced back great. She's my youngest niece, so she is precious to me." 
 
 Peterson also called Sosa a "great father" who "watches his daughter day in and day out." 
 
 Sosa appeared in court Saturday, and his bond was set at $100,000, according to the New York Daily News. 
 
 As we reported in September, Floridians have a history of leaving their kids alone while partying in strip clubs.

The severely malnourished teenager had been forced to stay in an unfinished basement for years and an alarm would sound if she went upstairs, police records say. The teen told authorities she ate what she could find in the garbage and on the floor of her father and stepmother's Madison home. Sometimes she was made to eat her feces and drink her own urine, according to a police affidavit. (AP Photo/Todd Richmond) Share this slide: 
 
 AP ||||| NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – A mother and her friend were arrested after her 13-month-old daughter was allegedly left in a hot car while auditioning on stage at an adult entertainment club in downtown Nashville. 
 
 According to a Metro police, Kelsey McMurtry, 24, was auditioning at Deja Vu Showgirls on Demonbreun Street and left her young daughter in the back of a car with the windows rolled up around 4 p.m. 
 
 McMurtry’s 19-year-old friend, Summer Taylor, was supposed to have been watching the child, but instead, was inside the club watching McMurtry’s audition, according to an arrest warrant. 
 
 Officers were called to the scene after witnesses reported seeing the child in the car. 
 
 Taylor allegedly told police she had been coming back to check on the child but witnesses reported never seeing the woman leave the club. 
 
 Witnesses estimated the child had been in the car for about 30 minutes. 
 
 The arresting officer noted in the warrant it was 72 degrees outside and the temperature inside the car was likely over 100 degrees. 
 
 The little girl was reportedly wearing a heavy coat and drenched in sweat when she was removed from the car. 
 
 She was taken to a local hospital for treatment. The Department of Children’s Services were called to the scene and hospital to care for the child. 
 
 McMurtry and Taylor were both booked into the Metro jail and charged with child neglect. 
 
 McMurtry was also charged with criminal impersonation for initially lying to officers about her identity. Also, she did not have a valid driver’s license. 
 
 Taylor’s bond was set at $10,000 and McMurtry’s bond was set at $40,000. Both women are due in court April 18.
– There are the oops moments that every parent has, and then there is the case of 24-year-old Kelsey McMurtry: Nashville police say McMurtry left her 13-month-old daughter locked in her vehicle on a 72-degree day—clad in a heavy coat, with the windows closed—while she auditioned at a strip club called Deja Vu Showgirls, reports WSBV-TV. Passersby noticed the child and called police, who estimate that temperatures inside the car had surpassed 100 degrees, who found her soaked in sweat. McMurtry's friend, Summer Taylor, 19, said she was keeping an eye on the child, but police and witnesses say Taylor was inside the club watching the audition, reports WKRN. Both women were charged with child neglect; McMurtry was additionally charged with criminal impersonation for lying to cops about her identity so as to avoid a previous warrant. The child was taken to the hospital and is in the hands of Department of Children’s Services. (A man allegedly left his 4-month-old in the car so he could go into a strip club.)
