The shocking reality of a heroin overdose have been exposed after a four-year-old boy was pictured in the backseat of a car, with his grandmother and her partner in the front, seemingly dead to the world.
Rhonda Pasek, 50, has been sentenced to 180 days in prison after the grandmother was charged with endangering a child.
After Rhonda pleaded no contest, a Juvenile Court judge in Ohio granted custody of her grandson to relatives in South Carolina.
Her partner, James Acord, had passed out at the wheel of their car in East Liverpool, Ohio.
Police had started to follow them when they noticed that their car was “weaving back and forth”.
Officer Kevin Thompson approached them after they had stopped behind a school bus.
He posted the pics of what he found on the City of East Liverpool, Ohio, Facebook page as he felt the images needed to be seen by the wider world.
