WEXFORD COUNTY, MI -- A 31-year-old Mesick woman is charged with child abuse after police say she gave marijuana to her two children, ages 10 and 12, for medical purposes.
Amy Renee Cunningham allegedly gave her 12-year-old son marijuana to treat ADHD because she preferred the child to have that over prescribed pills, the Cadillac News is reporting.
She allegedly gave another 10-year-old son marijuana to help with emotional issues, according to the News report.
Wexford County Prosecutor Anthony Badovinac was unavailable to speak about the case Wednesday morning.
According to the Cadillac News, Badovinac said police began investigating after a Child Protective Services worker was told by Cunningham the boys were being given marijuana.
Cunningham is charged with third-degree child abuse and delivery/manufacture of marijuana.
SleepAid's Notes: In the state of Michigan: 3rd degree child abuse is a felony that can result in up to 2 yrs imprisonment, and after further research her manufacture and delivery charge is also a felony punishable up to 4yrs imprisonment or $20,000 fine, or both, for "less than 5 kilograms or fewer than 20 plants".

Right? They've been highlighting a lot of cases where MJ resulted in a charge of child abuse lately. Think of the children, stop this legalization madness currently going on
