Teen parents charged in toddler’s meth-related death:

Child Dies After Ingesting Meth Ingredient:

Meth chemical that killed toddler was in a coffee cup on a table:

I kid about certain states sometimes like West Virginia and never really had a problem with Kentucky, until now. And let’s get this one out of the way up front. The following story takes place in a trailer.

22-month-old Kayden Branham of Monticello, Kentucky died after swallowing chemicals used to manufacture meth. Both Breeders have been charged with murder in his death. They would be sperm donor Bryan Daniels, 19, and the 14-year-old birth organism. That’s not a typo as so many of you pointed out to me. That means he was 17 and she was 12 when she gave birth. Which also means she may have been younger when she got pregnant.

The chemical was drain cleaner, specifically called Liquid Fire, that had been left in coffee cup. Even if you feel compelled to make meth you would think that these tweakers would at least keep their kids away from it. Sadly this isn’t the first baby drinking meth chemicals story we’ve had.

4 ‘adults’ have also been charged with manufacturing meth. They would be Danny Anderson II, 26; James Hunt, 24; Alisha Dicken, 21; and Wesley Bell, 24.

So we’ve got meth, a trailer, and a severe case of underage pregnancy. It’s like Jerry Springer meets COPS.

Thanks to every one who sent this tip in.

    Sadly, nothing about this story surprises me, including the age of the mother.

    I’m in a West Virginia college town, right at the border of Ohio and Kentucky, and I can assure you, people here don’t even cross over into Kentucky unless they have no choice. We may have our share of trash and bad parents in West Virginia, but Kentucky is infinitely worse.

    WE are speaking of a child, right? Most of you sound so trashy with your talk against a child… if you really cared so much about CHILDREN as you claim, then your actions would make that clear… apparently it’s just a way for bored housewives to point their fingers and gossip.

  • Jane Says:

    She didn’t receive enough support from her family or society… all society did was point fingers and ridicule and then you wonder why she let things go and her baby is dead? lol

    “Lee Ann, I agree that people here have a tendency to have a prejudice to young moms. Now I’m not saying that getting preggers too early is desirable, but many girls get pregnant early in life and are fine moms. And there are moms that have kids at a “reasonable” age that are horrible abusive bitches. I think it just has to do with the person. Some people have it in them to abuse a child. Some don’t.”

    jen…i think you said it all!!!! some girls at the age of 11 are more responsible and capable than those who are 18 or 19. i’m not promoting early motherhood but i’m also not prejudiced against it. i do feel sad for the girls who become mothers at such a terribly young age…they don’t get the chance to finish their own childhood and teenage years because they’re now responsible for a tiny little person and have to give up so much. no more hanging out, carefree with friends,etc. unless a parent is willing to step up and basically take over with raising the baby (mom could that way keep her child yet still finish school and have some of the fun that kids have). i think the reason alot of people throw out the “young mother/father/parents” phrase is because they feel someone so young isn’t mature enough to handle all the pressures that come with raising a baby. i’m not saying “all young parents”.
    again, i think jen said it best “some people have it in them to abuse others don’t”.
    regardless, this is a sad story.

    Sounds like a Jerry Springer show title in the beginning, but how come those four adults are
    mentioned? Were they the ones making the meth?
