    Police say Ohio mom injected teen kids with heroin

    LAURELVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say an Ohio mother has been arrested on charges accusing her of injecting her teenage children with heroin before sending them to school.

    The Hocking County Sheriff's Office says 35-five-year-old Shantel Parker, of Laurelville, was arrested Friday at Ohio State University hospital on warrants charging her with two counts each of felonious assault, corrupting another with drugs and endangering children.

    Investigators say Parker has been providing heroin and other drugs to her children, ages 14 and 16, for several months.

    The teens have been placed with the county children's services agency. Parker was to be jailed in Franklin County to await a hearing and transport to Hocking County. She was in custody and couldn't immediately comment.

    The Logan Daily News reports Parker had studied nursing from 2008 to 2010.

        Northeastern, you are being way too kind, but I can't think of a better word right now. This is a situation where words don't even come close.
      • 38 Special 3 mths ago
        Perhaps, she can be redeemed. We all have the right to a second chance as long as it doesn't involve murder or something like that.

      Is anybody besides me sitting at their computer and shaking their head in disbelief after reading this article?
      • Who Knows 3 mths ago
        I am, I am dumbfounded. What mother in her right mind would give her children HEROIN???? and why??? To have total control on them??? Maybe she would withhold the drugs when they started acting out as a teenager does..OMG this is tragic. What if she would have overdosed them and they died.

        You betcha.
      • Lane 3 mths ago
        Yep. Bad enough if true, but she didn't think anyone would notice the kids at school after being pumped full of heroin? Anyone ever meet a heroin addict? They tend to nod off mid-sentence and then pick back up minutes to many minutes later right where they left off. VERY noticeable.

      If its not predators killing our children its their own parents and family members... So sad
      • Today is a great day to s ... 3 mths ago
        That's what the media WANTS us to believe-by ONLY putting negative stories about sicko parents-THE MEDIA & GOVT can continue to RIP innocent good families apart which is a huge jobs & $$$ creation. When was the last time the media put out stories about parents who loved their kids?

        This article is not about Roe v Wade. Stick to the subject or take your agenda out of here.

      As a past heroin addict with 18yrs.being clean I can't see how anyone could put anyone much less their own kids through the hell of drug addiction. She should be charged with attempted murder for that's exactly what she's doing.
      • Tee 3 mths ago
        Gregpry - I too come from that HELL you left 18 yrs. ago (and never wanna go back) & I totally AGREE.

        drugs, a death sentance. suicide on a slower scale. pure and simple.
      • liam oneal 3 mths ago
        Depends on the drug and frequency of use. I occasionally take both Heroin and Dilaudid for migraine but it is administered in a doctors office and very infrequently.

      Child abuse knows no race, religion, or economic standing. So why do so many of these comments insist on focusing on those issues?
