A Clark County grandmother and her husband have been charged with murder in the October death of the woman's 10-month-old granddaughter.
Cheryl Kirkwood-Black, 51, and her husband, 42-year-old David Black, both of Winchester, were charged with murder after an autopsy revealed that Kirkwood Black's granddaughter, Addysen Mayes, died from "acute toxic effects of methadone."
..they obtained the drugs illegally.
Officials say the mother of the child, Brooks Ecton, 21, had been living with the Blacks at the time of the child's death, but had since moved out.
Ecton is charged with first-degree wanton endangerment for leaving the child with the Blacks, who, according to court documents, she knew were active drug users.
