Ya gotta be careful about what you post on social media. Yes, this cop did a great thing. But keep in mind that this child lost a parent and another is hospitalized due to drug overdoses. Not something the family would want plastered on social media, I would imagine. Were they exploiting the kid? No. But they did inadvertently air the family’s dirty laundry.

Didn’t the parents criminally neglect the child by their drug use? Is it wrong, in today’s world, to report on crimes? Crimes are not just “dirty laundry”, IMHO.

Were the parents / family identified in the pic or description?

Fam might be upset / embarrassed that “some family members first learned about the baby’s parents overdosing by seeing the picture on social media.”

It’s best to stay away from social media, period.

What about the latest incedent with Carlos Danger sexting pictures of himself to a sex partner with his son in the bed with him and him in his under wear?!!?

Some L/E department somewhere should have kicked in his door and drug him off to jail.

So by looking at this baby’s picture at 2 months old someone will be able to identify her at 4. Years old?

I want people like this to be publicly shamed. So your brother or sister was/is a heroin addict? You should have dealt with that.

When my brother was a heroin addict, I dealt with it.

When my sister in law was (is) a meth addict, I dealt with that too.

I felt shame. It motivated me.

Yes, I was a little worried when I first saw the photo that they showed the baby’s face. Should have used a different angle. Not in any way agreeing with the outraged family members.
