Jail is an unlikely (and unpopular) honeymoon destination, but that's where Kymberely Frederick and Daniel Richards celebrated their union after leaving their kids at home to get hitched. Richards, 34, and Frederick, 30, abandoned three small children to get married at the Seminole County Courthouse in Florida on Tuesday afternoon.
The proud parents of five borrowed their neighbor's car to be their carriage of love, then called the neighbor to look out for their two older children, who would be coming home soon from school. The neighbor asked about the three younger kids (ages 1, 2 and 3-years-old), and was told they were all at home sleeping. The neighbor called the police to report that the children had been left alone.
Frederick and Richards were arrested and charged with felony child neglect. A hearing on Wednesday showed that if the two had not wed prior to Sep. 10, then Richards would be legally required to pay child support. Both he and Frederick are unemployed, so that would make for an interesting arrangement. Or simply, more jail time.
