33-year-old Maxemillion Graham was taken into custody for three counts of child neglect on May 25th. Around 12:45 a.m., officers were called to the Clarion Hotel on North 1st Street after a guest located a 2-year-old, later identified as Graham’s nephew, in the hallway crying with only a diaper on. She brought the 2-year-old to security, who escorted them back to the room. When security got to the hotel room, the door was open, so they knocked three times, trying to announce themselves, but no one answered. Then, security entered and discovered two other minors, a 5-year-old and a 12-year-old, later identified as Graham’s children, causing them to alert the authorities. When officers arrived, they went to the room and met with Graham, who reeked of alcohol as she answered, showing signs of intoxication. She told them that she had been asleep the whole time and that her nephew must have opened the door while she was sleeping. Officers noticed empty beer cans on the room floor and spoke with her children, who stated they were okay and that their mom had been drinking a little bit. Security informed officers that Graham had left with two separate males throughout the night and provided them with security footage. The footage confirmed that she was not in the room when security went in the first time. Officers were in the hallway and could hear Graham inside the room cursing at someone and slamming her fist against something. Officers were advised that Graham needed to leave due to causing a disturbance. Then, officers had security knock on her room to inform Graham that she needed to leave. Once Graham answered, she noticed the police and attempted to flee back into the room. Officers followed her and apprehended her for the occurrence. Officers contacted DCS and waited with the children until they got there to make a safe plan for them.
