Az Law on Drug Use During Pregnancy?
Question by Miss Crickett: Az law on drug use during pregnancy?
This is a sad situation. My distant cousin is a meth addict. His girlfriend is also a meth addict. They have 1 child together that was born prematurely due to her drug use. The child was placed with CPS and now is in the custody of the great grandmother. Now the 16 yr old girl is 8 months pregnant and began having contactions. She tested positive for meth and pot. The baby only weighs approximately 1 lb and is very malnourished due to this girls drug habit. This baby will probably die from her choice to feed it nothing but meth. She did not have legal ramifications for her first pregnancy when the child was born early and had to live with tubes coming in and out of his lil body because of drugs. Now, this child will probably not live a day after it is born. Can she face murder charges? I would hope that the legal system can and will charge her for murder. Does such law exist in Arizona?

You should intervene and contact CPS. Let them know what is going on and they will take it from there.

Due to its receipt of this bulk cash HSBC is suspected of handling money belonging to the Mexican drug cartels. Although the Mexican drug cartels are a matter of national concern, Justice’s decision to prioritize prosecuting individual bankers may be motivated by another event hitting closer to the Department’s home. Some believe that if the bank is found to have laundered dirty money HSBC could pay a record one billion dollars fine as the Justice Department may look to make an example of the bank. The source who has direct knowledge of the probe which was disclosed last year said it is moving slowly in part because of the need for close examination for these individual prosecutions. He did not name any targeted individuals but revealed that theCarroll Foundation Trust one billion dollars offshore tax evasion money laundering case is believed to be …
