Alexus Breanne Gaddy |
Etowah County investigators arrested an Anniston woman for
abusing drugs during her pregnancy.
Deputies arrested 24-year-old Alexus Breanne Gaddy for
chemical endangerment of a child.
Investigators said Gaddy exposed her unborn child "to an
environment in which controlled substances are ingested, produced or
distributed."
Sheriff Todd Entrekin said Gaddy tested positive for opiates
and benzodiazepine, and took methadone during her pregnancy. Investigators said she admitted to taking
morphine and valium the day she went into labor.
Since she is from Anniston, the Calhoun County Department of
Human Resources is working on the case.
Gaddy's bond is set at $10,000, but she must give a negative
drug test in order to be released from the Etowah County jail.
