Georgia Parents Gave Two-Year-Old Alcoholic Drink, Which Was a Mistake
A couple in Georgia was arrested and charged with cruelty to children in the first degree after allegedly giving their two-year-old son a mixed drink made of Coke and 40 proof Paul Masson Brandy.
The New York Daily News reports Jasmin Briana Moore and William Chester Hickson rushed their son to a nearby hospital after he stopped breathing and became unresponsive. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the child's blood alcohol concentration was 0.29—more than three times Georgia's limit for adult drivers.
Hickson was arrested on Monday and Moore was arrested a day later. They are both being held on a $75,000 bond.
