More “Anti” Mother of the Year Candidates … 8 Month Old Boy Dies After Mother Uses Meth Pipe Swab to Clean His Nose

27 year old Elizabeth Reta will not be winning any mother of the year awards any time soon, if ever. 8 month old Samuel Reta died after his mother stated that she accidental cleaned the toddlers nose with a cotton swab used earlier to clean a Meth pipe. ACCIDENTALLY! Because we all just have cotton swabs hanging around the house that we use to clean meth pipes. The accidentally part might be a bit more believable if it were not for the fact that 9 month old Samuel Reta also had a fractured skull, broken arms and pneumonia. What other outcome could ever have been in store for this poor, innocent child with a neglectful and drug addicted mother like this?

Her boyfriend Juan Antonio Sanchez Jr., who surrendered to police later that night, was also arrested on suspicion of abusing the child, officials said.

It was not immediately known if Reta and Sanchez faced additional charges now that they boy had died, police Sgt. Joseph Giallo said Monday.
