The videotape says it all and it is the chief bit of evidence against two Texas teenagers who were arrested for turning two brothers, a 5-year-old and a 2-year-old, into pot-heads.
Yes, thats right, the toddlers were smoking marijuana. Really smoking like, inhaling. At one point, one of the older boys asked if the youngsters had the munchies.
The toddlers are now reported to be in protective custody and the two men face felony charges.
CNN reported this morning that the mother of the two young children, Shattoria Russell, was sleeping in the next room with a toothache. While she expressed disapproval of what the two men did, she said she didnt think they should have to do hard time.
However, Bruce Ure, director of public safety for the city of Watauga, Texas, said the tape clearly showed that this wasnt the first time the boys had smoked marijuana. more at link:http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/03/05/in-texas-the-strange-case-of-the-toking-toddlers/
