Hardin Co. woman arrested after children left alone for several days

A Hardin county woman has been arrested after officials found her children alone in their residence. According to arrest citations, officials say the subject, Danielle Ducret, left a note with her children, saying that she would be back at some point, suggesting that she did not care when. An eventual call to officials led child protective services to find the children, ages ranging from 10 to 19, with little food in the residence, as well as no means of communication or transportation. Ducret, who had still not returned after 4 days, was later found in the Fayette county Detention Center. Ducret was charged with endangering the welfare of a minor and was transported to the Hardin county Detention Center.
