Summerville resident Michelle Faith Mullis, 26, was arrested on Saturday, March 5th, for leaving her three children in the car while shopping at the Goose Creek Wal-Mart.

With all of the news stories focused on parents being charged with unlawful conduct after abandoning their kids in the car, you'd think that it would stop happening. Apparently not.

Mullis left her three kids (ages six, four, and three) in the car while shopping at Wal-Mart with her boyfriend for 24 minutes.

The Post and Courier has all the details from a release; check them out here. ABC News 4 also has a rehashed release; read that here.

Late last month another local woman was arrested in a similar incident.
