[h=1]Teen parents and grandfather made their toddler smoke pot[/h]
Teenage parents and a grandfather were arrested this week and accused of making a toddler smoke marijuana. Mother Jessica Kelsey, 17, father George Kelsey, 18, and grandfather Don Baker, 54, all of suburban Buffalo, encouraged or helped a 23-month-old child smoke marijuana earlier this month, officials said.
The baby was encouraged, helped or observed smoking from a lighted bowl December 5 in the family’s Mayville apartment, according to an affidavit cited by a report in The Buffalo News.
‘They packed the marijuana pipe, lit it for the baby and gave it to him and encouraged him to inhale...it's just unbelievable,’ Chautauqua County Undersheriff Charles Holder told WIVB.
It is not clear how authorities became aware of the incident, but the station noted it may have been videotaped.
The stoner trio was arrested and arraigned Friday on charges of second-degree reckless endangerment and endangering the welfare of a child.
You have a 23-month-old child who's completely helpless, can't really say yes or no, wants to please their parents and grandparent, and this is what you do?’ Jodie Altman, Executive Director of Renaissance House told WIVB.
‘There should be some serious consequences… unfortunately, when babies are having babies, that's what happens,’ she added. They are in custody in lieu of $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond. The toddler, along with another sibling, is in protective custody.
All that pot smoking must have fried what little brains they had...
