Ohio grandmother, 44, is jailed for 90 days after her two young grandchildren ate HEROIN while in her care and had to be revived with an overdose drug
The grandmother of two small children who swallowed heroin at her northeast Ohio home and had to be revived with an overdose drug has been sentenced to 90 days in jail.
A judge on Wednesday sentenced 44-year-old Lisa Davis, of Warren, to the three-month jail term, followed by five years of probation after the woman pleaded guilty in late October to a felony charge of allowing drug abuse.
Davis' two grandchildren, aged nine months and 21 months, and their teenage mother were living in Davis' home on Randolph Street earlier this year when they ate heroin and had to be treated with a heroin antidote at a hospital emergency room.
A jury last month convicted the children's mother, 19-year-old Carlisa Davis, of two counts of child endangering publishable by up to six years in prison. She awaits sentencing.
Lisa Davis' attorney called it a 'tragic situation' during her sentencing hearing Wednesday. Lisa Davis' mother now has custody of her two great-grandchildren, according to The Tribune Chronicle.
On February 2, Carlisa Davis, then 18 years old, woke up to discover her two young children lying unconscious on the floor, having ingested heroin.
The boy and girl were rushed to ValleyCare Trumbull Memorial Hospital, where doctors administered to them two doses each of the opiate-reversal drug Naloxone.
