Weeping mom arrested for abandoning kids while she went to a job interview

'refused offers of work and spent donation money on making a rap album'

A mother who won public sympathy - and donations of more than $114,000 - after claiming that she had no option but to leave her two little boys in a sweltering car so she could attend a job interview has been accused by an ex- supporter of refusing job offers and wasting the money donated to her.

One of Shanesha Taylor's her biggest supporters following her arrest in March was civil rights leader Reverend Jarrett Maupin, but he now says his patience has run out.

‘We're trying to separate Shanesha Taylor from her mistakes, and that has proved to be perhaps an insurmountable obstacle,’ he told ABC15.

Following Taylor’s arrest and tear-stained mugshot, the 35-year-old from Phoenix, Arizona quickly raised $114,000 after support poured into an online fundraising account.

Part of a deal with prosecutors to avoid charges for Taylor included her putting some of the $114,000 raised into a trust for her children.

She didn't "earn" it, it was given to her, therefor she's going to continue to blow it and screw her kids lives up. Color doesn't matter, if you are handed something for free, you care less about it than had you busted your a$$ to purchase the same item. Lazy F's.

This infuriates me. Put that good for nothing piece of garbage in jail. Her children will be better off.
