A woman in her 30s was recently charged with involuntary manslaughter following the death of her son, who was just four years old at the time of his death and was believed to have consumed an excessive amount of THC edibles.

On May 8, a medical emergency involving the child occurred at a property located on Jamie Court, as stated in a press statement issued by the Sheriff of Spotsylvania County, Roger Harris. It is said that he passed away two days after that.

Harris stated that additional inquiry led to the discovery that "a considerable quantity of THC gummies" were consumed by the toddler. It has been alleged that a doctor advised the authorities that the child's death could have been avoided if medical assistance had been provided to the infant quickly after consumption.

The indictment of the infant's mother, Dorothy Annette Clements, on charges of felony murder and felony child negligence was announced by Harris on October 17 and came from a grand jury in Spotsylvania County. On October 20, three days after she was supposedly taken into custody, she was transported to the Rappahannock Regional Jail where she was held without bond.
