Rachel Stieringer, Possession Of Drug Paraphernalia
Rachel Stieringer, Possession Of Drug Paraphernalia----Rachel Stieringer, 19, was arrested and charged with one count of possession of drug paraphernalia, a first-degree misdemeanor.Assistant state attorney Lara Mattina says DCF gave the infant a drug test and it came back negative so that charge doesn't apply in this case and the more serious charge of child abuse would only apply when the child is exposed to drugs.However, Stieringer declined comment.
The mother of a baby who appeared to be smoking a bong told a detective she thought it was funny that her 11-month-old son put the bong into his mouth and looked like he was smoking pot.
Sharalyn Harris says the picture got blown out of proportion, but admits this is a wakeup call for her daughter.
Harris says her daughter is going through drug counseling and parenting classes and says the grandparents are now caring for the baby.
