Stoners Neglect Their Toddler

For those of you who think that pot smoking is a victimless crime, check out this story about stoner parents letting their toddler go wandering the neighborhood in a poopy diaper, carrying Dad’s smokes and weed.

From MSNBC here:

A barefoot boy, wet from rain, wandering the streets of Bethlehem, Pa., Saturday morning had a couple surprises in hand.

A neighbor found the 19-month-old wearing a dirty diaper and with a marijuana pipe in one hand and a pack of cigarettes in the other.

The neighbor took in the boy, cleaned him up, got him something to eat and called the cops while another woman went door to door trying to find his parents but was unsuccessful.

Police eventually contacted the boy’s parents, identified as Bryan Schneider, 46, and Katherine Main-Schneider, 32. Police found another glass marijuana pipe in the couple’s driveway.

Schneider said he and his wife were asleep when his son got out. He was out partying the night before. Upon questioning the 46-year-old turned over a bag and a jar containing a small amount of weed.

The child was taken into protective custody but was ultimately released to a grandparent. The 19-month-old’s parents were charged with endangering the welfare of a child and drug charges.

You’d think at 46, Schneider would grow up and stop acting like he’s 19. I love how the neighbors went on camera to express their disgust at these lowlife parents. Thanks to Trench’s BadBreeders site for the story.
