Like Mother, Like Daughter
Someone flagged down patrolling police officers in Panama City Beach, Fla., to report they had found two children, aged 2 and 3, alone in a parked pickup truck. The children were screaming, and officers also noticed marijuana and paraphernalia in “several locations” inside the truck. The kids had been there for at least 30 minutes, witnesses said, and no one had come to check on them. Police found the children’s mother and grandmother in a nearby parlor — getting tattoos. Shannon Farrow Anderson, 45, and Hannah Ashlyn Anderson, 21, were charged with two counts of child neglect, and one count each of possessing marijuana and paraphernalia. (RC/Panama City News Herald) ...And may their incomplete tattoos forever remind them of their incomplete humanity.Original Publication Date: 23 April 2017
