Story here. Charges against the father who turned in a pregnant mom for drug abuse have now been dropped. He had been charged for felony child abuse for not preventing the mother from using drugs. However, no charges will be made against the mother, even though she used drugs while pregnant. Excerpt:

'KTOE News asked Blue Earth County Attorney Pat McDermott about Felony charges filed Friday against 41-year old Daniel Gerald Sturdivant after his newborn baby tested positive for amphetamines and opiates.

McDermott says he reviewed the case and dismissed the charges against Sturdivant. McDermott says his office has also declined charges against the mother of the infant.

Blue Earth County Human Services Child Protection officials are working with the family.'

Glad to see charges were dropped, but come on!!! How in the world did anyone even think to charge him instead of the mother? The whole thing disgusts me.

Nothing pissing me off more then mothers who abuse the unborn.
