A woman in Fort Myers, Florida, was arrested after her baby allegedly overdosed on fentanyl but was revived with CPR.
The mother initially claimed the baby had stopped breathing while playing with a toy, but evidence of fentanyl was found in the home, and testing confirmed its presence in the baby’s bloodstream.
According to WINK News, “Sinopoli said she was driving the baby to the hospital when she met officers and told them the baby was playing with a puppy toy when he fell asleep. Then he stopped breathing.”
“They observed the lifeless baby with no pulse and began CPR. Body camera footage showed the Sinopoli in tears as they attempted to revive the baby,” the outlet continued.
The woman is now facing an aggravated child abuse charge.
