A Miami-area judge scolds a 29-year-old woman after authorities allege she left her four children at home alone while she went on a cruise to the Bahamas. Nathalie Belizaire is reported to have been arrested in Miami following the incident.

Accounts describe the children as very young, including a baby and a toddler. One report says the allegation involves leaving them at home alone to take a three-night Bahamas cruise, while another places the trip as a four-day Carnival Conquest cruise to the Bahamas. Both describe Belizaire as having appeared in court and being confronted by the judge, with differing emphasis on her courtroom demeanor.

While the outlets differ on cruise details such as the duration and the specific ship, they agree on the core allegations: Belizaire left her four children alone at home in Florida to travel on a Bahamas-bound cruise. The reports also agree the matter involves court proceedings after her arrest in connection with the alleged child-safety violation.
