Breaking news: California Woman Arrested for Child Abuse in Infant's Fentanyl Death
A California woman has been arrested in connection with the fentanyl-related death of her 1-year-old child in 2023. Christy Scarbrough, 40, was taken into custody on May 30 and is facing charges for child abuse with possible great bodily injury or death and abuse resulting in death, according to the Chico Police Department.
Police said the infant was able to access fentanyl "because it was left unattended next to the area where they would sleep." Officers responded to the Enloe Hospital in Chico for the death of the infant on June 6, 2023, where they learned the child was taken to the hospital by their mother, identified as Scarbrough.
The Butte County Sheriff's Office and Chico Police Department investigated Scarbrough's home and found fentanyl drug paraphernalia next to the child's bed. Law enforcement interviewed family members and collected more evidence before ultimately concluding the child died of "acute fentanyl intoxication."
"Detectives obtained additional evidence indicating Scarbrough was using fentanyl before and after the infant's death," Chico police said. Scarbrough was booked into a jail in Butte County, police said.
This tragic incident highlights the dangers of drug abuse and the importance of keeping drugs out of reach of children. It is unacceptable for a parent to put their child in harm's way by leaving dangerous substances unattended.
As conservatives, we believe in personal responsibility and the importance of protecting innocent lives. This case is a reminder that drug abuse not only harms the user but also those around them, including their own children.
We must continue to fight against the scourge of drug abuse and hold those who endanger the lives of others accountable for their actions. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of the deceased child, and we hope that justice will be served in this case.
