WA couple charged after exposing baby to meth

EVERETT, Wash. (AP) - A Lake Stevens couple has been charged with felony child endangerment after exposing an 11-month-old baby to meth.

The Daily Herald ( http://is.gd/zcKzg7) reports the couple allegedly smoked meth while the girl was with them in their vehicle.

The girl's 22-year-old mother, and her half-brother boyfriend were charged Thursday with one count each of child endangerment with a controlled substance.

The woman has other children and Child Protective Services is involved.

Marysville Police say they were tipped off by a 911 caller who was worried that the girl was being exposed to second-hand smoke from the drug. It was 38 degrees that night and the vehicle had no heat. Police say the girl was dressed only in a diaper and appeared to be cold and hungry.

    So incest still exist in our nation. Got to love that trailer trash mentality. 38 degrees and no heat in the car and the baby has nothing by a diaper on. My god, why did they even have a baby.

    Of course it does. Thank the left. To a liberal this sort of "love" is "normal", needs encouragement, class protection and special laws.

    Those kids need to be kept far away from their sistermother.
