Dad abandons 5-month-old baby at home alone; police find stolen video game equipment (Hornellsville, New York)

Hmm. Is CORY S. HUNT a deadbeat, er, "stay-at-home" dad? Good lawd, it's not like we haven't seen this type before. Doesn't want to work or support his family, but doesn't really want to do housework or real childcare either, 'cause that's not manly don't ya know. Just want to play his XBox all day! So he steals video game sh** (because Mommy doesn't give him money for that?), and abandons a 5-month-old baby home alone while he "visits" with a neighbor." Visits? ???

Mothers and children need this? And where is the mother of this baby anyway? Why is she not mentioned in this story?

INVISIBLE MOTHER ALERT.

Hornellsville, NY — A Cameron father is facing endangerment and stolen-goods charges after he allegedly left his infant son unattended and was in possession of items stolen from a neighbor.

According to the Steuben County Sheriff’s Office, Cory S. Hunt left his 5-month-old son unattended in his apartment while he visited with a neighbor. The incident occurred sometime in August at the Seneca Manor Apartments.

While the father was away, the child continued to cry long enough to draw the attention of another resident of the apartment complex, police said. The unnamed resident went to Hunt’s apartment to check the welfare of the child, police said.

While in the apartment, the resident found an XBox 360 game console, six video games and a controller she previously reported stolen.

Hunt, 23, was charged with endangering the welfare of a child and fifth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, both misdemeanors. He was issued appearance tickets.

The investigation into the incident is ongoing.
