GUILTY AL - Curtis James Oakes, 6 mos, found in motel freezer, Dothan, 4 June 2018

"C.J., only around half a year old at the time of his death, had accidentally ingested methamphetamine Mathis and the child’s mother, Amanda Gail Oakes, had with them while staying in the InTown Inn and Suites in Dothan."
From @killarney rose posted link, first I've seen of the COD.


JMO, MOO, etc

How does a six month old accidentally ingest anything? They don’t crawl or walk at that age. Did they put the meth in his hands by mistake? Poor little angel. I’m just glad these “parents” will never ever get a second chance at parenting.

News outlets report 36-year-old Amanda Gail Oakes was sentenced Wednesday after pleading guilty to charges including manslaughter and corpse abuse. Oakes also agreed to testify against Carlton James Mathis, her boyfriend at the time. His murder trial is set for November.

Authorities in Alabama say a man awaiting trial for the death of his 6-month-old son has been found dead in his jail cell.

Mathis’ death comes days after the baby’s mother, 36-year-old Amanda Gail Oakes, pleaded guilty to charges including manslaughter and corpse abuse. Her plea was part of a deal in which she agreed to testify against Mathis at his November trial on similar charges. She was sentenced to 99 years in prison.
