The mother of a 6-year-old was charged this week after her son took a loaded handgun to school and passed it around to other students in his class, court records show.
Ke’Erinie King, 22, has been charged with child abuse and child neglect or endangerment, carrying a weapon on school property and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, according to an affidavit.
She had the child when she was about 16 years old.
Yes, the article just flew right past that. This child had a child, and then for some reason decided she needed an un-registered gun to protect herself and her child from… ? Guesses? COUGHrapistinthefamilyCOUGH I dunno!
Okay?
Just sad all around
Honestly this is a good example of where a justice system that doesn’t revolve around incarceration would be better. Obviously this isn’t a situation society can just let fly but what becomes of this child now that their mom is locked up? Nothing good.
Edit: or maybe she isn’t, the article doesn’t mention any possible sentences.
I’m afraid this will become more common in southern states with abortion rights under attack.
I guess that kind of thing is normal and accepted in your area.
It’s legal. I’m also not into looking down on others. The ages were in the post already so highlighting it seems off.
