A Malvern teen has been arrested after allegedly making three small children smoke marijuana while babysitting. Council Bluffs Police charged the 16-year-old with three counts of administering harmful substances and three counts of child endangerment on Thursday. Police allege the teen smoked marijuana while caring for three children, ages 3, 5 and 9 on Jan. 9. Criminal Investigation Division Sgt. Ray Mabbitt said they were alerted to the case after a referral from the Iowa Department of Human Services. The children's mother spoke with KETV NewsWatch 7 on Sunday and said her 9-year-old told her she lied to a Child Protective Services worker. "She came home from school crying and scared that her uncle was going to be in trouble with police and go to jail. She said, 'Mom, I told them Uncle Adam made me smoke pot, and he didn't,'" said Amy Dawn Clemmons. "There was a marijuana pipe on top of the fridge, when Adam went to the bathroom, she went and got it and he caught her with it," said Clemmons. Clemmons is upset because she said there is no proof or evidence that this happened. Clemmons said her children were asked to take a drug test. The teen told investigators he did not give the children marijuana and was charged and transported to the Southwest Iowa Juvenile Detention Center. The 16-year-old's aunt, Roberta Lynn Oswald, said her nephew is mentally handicapped, but never let it affect him. Oswald said her nephew is a nice kid that would help anyone who needed him. source: ketv.com
