JULY 14--A man left two children--one of whom suffers from brain damage and is severely autistic--home alone early Friday while he spent four hours at a Florida strip club, police allege.
Kalvin Dywane Guice, 38, has been charged with a pair of felony child neglect counts in connection with his late-night excursion to the 4 Play Gentlemen’s Club in St. Petersburg, which is about nine miles from the residence where he was supposed to be supervising the children.
A criminal complaint does not reveal Guice’s relationship with the minors, whose mother was in Georgia attending her mother’s funeral. Guice, cops say, “was left to care for the children during this time.”
The court filing also does not indicate how police learned that the children were left alone, or how long Guice was supposed to care for them.
According to investigators, Guice, seen above, admitted leaving the children home alone while he was at the strip club (seen below), where he consumed four or five Jack and Cokes. Guice reportedly acknowledged that the children were unable to care for themselves, “especially in the event of an emergency.”
