The article said CPS had been involved, and she was in the special education department at school where they described her as "a deeply troubled girl".
There is more to this story if they choose to investigate.
Another example of a case that if tried by a PD Gma will probably end up taking a deal and if she had money for a good defense attorney would probably be cleared. Daughter is throwing her right under the bus and Gma may feel guilty and just let it roll over her, but if not she needs to be throwing some responsibility mom's way. How bout mom knew there were pills at Gma's and shouldn't be sending her daughter unsupervised, or at a minimum shouldn't have called Gma so the child was supervised. How bout daughter mentioned pills everywhere, did mom check her for pills? Same day daughter becomes sick and mom puts her to bed?
"I am not this child's guardian, she does not live with me, I did not invite her on this occassion, I was not informed she was coming, I was not aware she was in my home, it was her mother that she mentioned her access to pills, it was her mother that she sought out when she became ill, it was her mother who had the responsibility and opportunity to handle this differently."
I'm highly suspicious of the mother. It's not uncommon for legimate users of Oxycontin to have one or more family members addicted to the medication. They wait until the owner of the med is "out of it" so to speak, and raid their pills. When they wake up, they know nothing of what went on. If pills come up short, they don't have the recall to accuse anyone of theft.
My scenario has the daughter getting into her mother's stash of pills that were stolen from g-ma. Mom goes over to g-mas house to verify that she's knocked out (not to clean), maybe to spread pills around but, she can't get into the safe. Instead she claims that she cleaned them up and put them back into the safe. She invents the potato, pills everywhere story to frame the g-ma. G-ma can't defend herself...she was out cold and knows nothing.
