Authorities said five teenagers were transported to the hospital from a packed party in Central Florida late Friday night.
Miller’s 16-year-old daughter wound up in the hospital.
“If my daughter told me they were going to have alcohol I wouldn’t have permitted it,” Miller said. “I didn’t see any drugs.”
The teens told police they didn’t know alcohol would be at the party and no adults were there as deputies arrived.
“We found five teenagers who appeared to have overdosed on alcohol and we are not sure of what type of drug right now,” said Lt. Paul Hopkins with the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
Neighbors said they saw teenagers being put on gurneys and said many people bolted from the party when deputies arrived.
“This is a nice neighborhood. It is weird to see this happen,” said neighbor Ignacio Burneo. “I saw a few teenagers being pulled out in ambulances.”
Early results came back negative.
“I don’t know what Molly is. The police were saying that and I’m going, ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about,’” Miller said.
A case worker with the Department of Children and Families was called in to investigate but at this point none of Miller’s children will be removed.
“I’ve got six children. I wouldn’t do anything to hurt anyone’s children,” Miller said.
No charges have been filed and all of the teenagers are expected to be OK.
