Arizona mom uses donations for music studio

PHOENIX, Ariz. (KABC) -- An Arizona mother who left her two young sons in a hot car while she went on a job interview is under scrutiny again.

Shanesha Taylor received over $110,000 in donations after her mugshot and story inspired people to help her out. Many of those supporters are now trying to get their money back after learning how she has spent that money.

Rev. Jarrett Maupin, a local civil rights leader, says he even lined up jobs for her, but she never showed up.

"We had someone call my office and alert her attorney to the fact that she spent $6,000 at a music studio in Tempe to finish her baby daddy's rap album," Maupin said.

Along with the payment to the studio, a budget document, obtained by an ABC affiliate in Arizona, reveals more of her spending. It included a $160 cable bill, $300 for clothes and $300 for entertainment, totaling over $4,100.

Taylor could not be reached for comment. She was expected back in court Dec. 3.
