ATLANTA, GA — Ebony Daniel, 34, and her boyfriend, Charlie Martin, 22, have both been charged with possession of cocaine, cruelty to children in the first degree and reckless conduct, after Daniel’s toddler grandson ingested cocaine while in her care.
The 13-month-old child was brought into Piedmont Newnan Hospital in Georgia by his 17-year-old mother. After police officers were told that the child ingested cocaine, he was transported to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Eggleston, where he tested positive for the substance.
“We received a call from Piedmont Newnan Hospital saying that they were treating a 13-month-old child that had been exposed and possibly ingested an unknown amount of crack cocaine,” said Sgt. Lee Gragg of the Palmetto Police Department. “We do know from speaking to a couple of witnesses that the cocaine was sitting open on the table.”
