Woman Popped for Prostitution, Child Neglect

(Nashville, Tennessee) A 25-year-old Texas woman, Melissa Dillon, has been accused of prostitution and child neglect after being caught in an undercover sting while leaving her toddler son in an adjacent motel room.

After responding to Dillon's Internet ad, cops negotiated to pay $200 for sex and arrested her. Then motel management said Dillon had rented two rooms.

When officers went to the room, they heard a 20-month-old boy crying.

Police went into the room and found Dillon's son by himself in a playpen with the television on cartoons. Dillon told police she left the boy to conduct business.

Dillon was booked into custody with bond set at $12,500. The toddler is now in the custody of the Department of Children's Services.
