Missouri Woman Accused of Drugging Granddaughter

Written by Janet

Latest news reports say a Missouri grandmother is accused of drugging her 1-year-old granddaughter, hoping that the child’s divorcing parents would get back together if they had a sick child. 

The police in Jefferson City Missouri allege in a probable cause statement that 41-year-old Terri Chilton fed her granddaughter blood thinner on Jan. 12, causing the girl to bleed uncontrollably from her mouth, nose and two minor scratches. The girl survived, but it’s not yet known if there was long-term organ damage.

Chilton is charged with on count of first degree child endangerment.  At the online court records site, it does not list the name of her attorney yet, and she did not immediately return a call to her home seeking comment Saturday. She was released on bond Friday.

    When you have adult kids, you can’t control their lives, no matter how hard you try….they may have good reason to separate….mom should keep her nose out.

    The granddaughter now faces a lifetime of unanswered questions, what damage was done to those organs?

    Granny needs help asap….and a long jail time…

    Not sure that I want to admit to knowing this woman but unfortunately I do. She has a blood clotting disorder so she has a prescription for the blood thinner. If you people only new the half of what she has done over the years you would think even worse of her. I would put nothing past her!!!!!

    I can imagine what she may have done….if this is an example….she needs a good shrink…..and never let her see the baby again.
