Mom Drugged Cranky Daughter

In Yelm Washington a mother admitted to placing a percocet pill in her 9-month old daughter's formula bottle because they baby was "cranky as hell". Percocet is a narcotic pain reliever that contains oxycodone, and is very dangerous for anyone under the age of 18. The baby started making gurgling and would not wake up. The baby was flown to Tacoma Washington and she had stopped breathing. court papers state. “The victim was in such a state that the medics had to insert a line directly into the baby’s bone marrow as the baby’s veins were in a state of collapse,” court papers state. Gatlin (the babies mother) entered a not guilty plea Tuesday to her initial charges – unlawful distribution of a controlled substance to a person under 18 and third-degree assault of a child. This is absolutely horrible. If she can't handle a baby crying then she should have never had one. This poor innocent child had no say if what happened to her and now she's dead. The mother really doesn't seem remorceful, and she is never allowed to have contact with any children again.
