Seminole Police officials said Simmons allegedly left her three children - ages 4, 10 and 12 - alone and unattended in a car in the casino's parking garage for more than three hours while she was in the poker room.

The children had no food or water in the car, police said.

Simmons appeared in bond court Tuesday, where it was revealed she's a resident of Georgia. She was given a $15,000 bond.
