Fox News
Brittany Patterson, 41, is fighting against potential jail time after deputies arrested her over her 10-year-old son's unsupervised walk into town.
Patterson had taken another son to a doctor’s appointment when she left her son Soren, now 11, alone at their home in the rural town of Mineral Bluff, NBC News reported. After someone reported Soren’s wandering, deputies located him and drove him home.
"It's not a super dangerous or even dangerous-at-all stretch of road," Patterson told the outlet. "I wasn't terrified for him or scared for his safety."
