Mother Arrested for Facebook Photo of Baby Holding Bong

on
Keystone Heights, Fla. mother Rachel Stieringer, 19, is facing one count of possession of drug paraphernalia, a first-degree misdemeanor, after posting a photo on Facebook of her baby holding a bong.

Stieringer told police that she was just joking around and didn't expose the child to any actual marijuana. A drug test on the child came back negative.  Prosecutors said they could not charge her with child abuse, because her son "wasn’t exposed to any drugs."

Okay, this lady was REALLY stupid for putting this photo up on Facebook, but does she really need to go to jail over it? After all, she didn't actually put the baby in any harm at all. Prosecutors should stop trying to ruin the lives of relatively innocent pot smokers with trumped up charges like this. It's a shame.
