Toddler In Road...Mother Goes To Jail
KENTUCKY...
Police have charged a western Kentucky woman after a motorist found her toddler wandering on a road.
The Marshall County Sheriff's Office charged Courtney Oakley with endangering the welfare of a minor.
Deputy Jason Ivey says Oakley's 18-month-old son was barefoot, wearing a diaper and a T-shirt when the driver found him on Wednesday. Ivey started knocking on doors in the neighborhood and says Oakley answered her door and said she had been asleep.
Oakley was booked into the county jail. Ivey said the boy's great-grandmother is caring for him.
