JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A 30-year-old woman is charged with aggravated manslaughter after a 2-year-old boy died after coming in contact with methadone she admitted leaving in a child's plastic drinking cup, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.

The boy's father, Ernest Wright, said he was in school when it happened and he came to his home on Alta Drive on Nov. 15 to find his son unconscious.

He took the boy to a hospital, where the boy was pronounced dead on arrival.

The autopsy revealed Masia Wright died from methadone toxicity and the medical examiner ruled the case a homicide.

CORRECTION!

It wasn’t the MOTHER.

The mother doesn’t have time to care about her baby!

No it was the “care giver”!

...

Wright said that Anderson was not the boy’s mother, but she had helped raise him since he was 3 months old. He believes his son must have seen the cup and thought there was juice inside.

“I know she loved my son and she wouldn’t do anything like that,” Wright said. “She just wasn’t thinking.”

...

Yeah, it’s no big deal. Anderson just WASN’T THINKING!

I bet if Anderson apologizes to the “mom” and “dad” of the dead child, everything will be fine and they’ll have one less expense - “caregiving”.

CORRECTION AGAIN!

It wasn’t just a “caregiver”.

No way!

It was, drum roll, the father’s GIRLFRIEND!

“Father’s Girlfriend Charged With Aggravated Manslaughter”

Yes, the bio “mom” just gave birth to the littel boy, 3and the GIRL FRIEND of the “dad” has been taking care of the little boy since he was THREE MONTHS OLD! How crazy is that?

BTW, the little boy looks black ... the name Masia is unusual. Anyone know what country favors the name Masia? I ask because it’s not your typical AMERICAN name and I wonder if one or the other is a new or illegal immigrant.

It took a bit of work to figure out that it was Captain Picard’s face palm that you posted, but if ever a story merited it, this one certainly did...

Prayers for suffering innocents.

At least it was a painless death and she didn’t put him in the microwave.
