Melvin Blevins Update: Toddler Forced to Smoke Pot also had Cocaine in her System
Remember Melvin Blevins? He and his 16-year-old girlfriend video taped themselves forcing a toddler to smoke pot in what was the one of the most shocking crimes we’ve seen in the last few months. It gets worse however, as there are reports that the toddler, who was Blevins’ niece, tested positive for Cocaine in her system:
The video was seen around the world: A toddler was given a pipe to smoke marijuana.
Though well-watched, the videotape still was hard to watch.
It showed 16-year-old Angel Dailey and 18-year-old Melvin Blevins allegedly giving a toddler a marijuana pipe. Dailey pleaded guilty to the crime Friday, NBC 4’s Mike Bowersock reported.
The video of the toddler was found at a pawn shop. NBC 4 learned in court Friday that the 2-year-old little girl had not only marijuana in her system but cocaine, too.
The article relates the plea deal 16-year-old Angel Dailey accepted for her role in the crime and interviews the toddlers mother, who had left the child with her ex-husband and didn’t know Blevins was going to be “caring for” the little girl:
“That was family. She shouldn’t have done that to family,” Amber Pruitt, the child’s mother, said.
Dailey said the child’s uncle is the man in the video allegedly trying to get the toddler to smoke marijuana.
Pruitt told Bowersock she remembered the first time she saw the video of her daughter smoking marijuana from a pipe.
“I almost got sick. I started crying,” Pruitt said. “I was in my living room. I had no idea about any of it. She was with her father for a few months because my mother had passed away … I really thought she’d be safe in the care of her father and her grandmother. I didn’t even know she was left with her uncle.”
Blevins, the boyfriend, was charged in federal court with even more crimes, including drug and gun possession.
The judge in the case was waiting for mental tests to be done on Dailey before sentencing her.
Waiting for tests no doubt because Dailey comes from a family of pot dealers and there is likely a question as to whether she was exposed to Marijuana early enough for it to stunt her development.
I’m thinking yeah, that’s probably the case.

What informations is incorrect? There’s a video of Blevins giving pot to a baby, the kid tested positive for coke and Blevins and his old lady were dealing for his old lady’s father. Where am I wrong?
