this mother had to name 3 different men to get a definitive paternity test sorted.
she knew damn well baby daddy is a convict, she has a record, and so did the dumbass girlfriend who put methadone in a sippy cup.
poor kid never had a chance.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Photos and memories are all Makisha Gaffney has left of her 2-year-old son, Mesia Wright.
More than a week after the toddler died of a methadone overdose, she is having trouble coping with Mesia's loss.
"It's so hard," Gaffney said. "I haven't been to work. I haven't been to school. I haven't eaten." (but i had time to get this t-shirt made up to wear for the news outlets.)
Police said the boy died after coming in contact with methadone in a child's plastic drinking cup left on a dresser in Mesia's father's home.
The father, Ernest Wright, said he came home from school Nov. 15 to find his son unconscious. He took the boy to a hospital, where the boy was pronounced dead on arrival.
The autopsy revealed Masia died from methadone toxicity and the medical examiner ruled the case a homicide.
According to the arrest report, Dana Anderson admitted to leaving a purple sippy cup with about 80 mg of methadone in it on the dresser in her bedroom.
The drug is often used to curb heroin or other opiate addictions, and experts told Channel 4 it is so powerful that t 5 mg of the liquid would have been enough to kill a small child.
Gaffney said she had primary custody of Masia but allowed her son to stay with his father while she was at work and school.
"It's one thing to put something in a cup, but to put it in a sippy cup -- it looks really attractive to a 2-year-old," Gaffney said. "So I don't understand why it was put in there for my son to get a hold to, and now my son doesn't have a life."
"He's gone now and he has no voice, so I will be sure to make it my business to be his voice," Gaffney said.
Wright said that Anderson had helped raise the boy since he was 3 months old. He believes his son must have seen the cup and thought there was juice inside.
Police records show Anderson has several previous arrests, including several drug charges, petty theft and traffic charges.
Gaffney said she wasn't aware that the woman had a history of arrests. BullShit
"I wouldn't have had my son in that environment," she said.
