Benjamin Benchley, 26, pleaded guilty to three felony charges, including child neglect that led to his 4-year-old son ingesting fentanyl that stopped his heart twice.
The plea deal is contingent on Benchley’s acceptance into Recovery Court and his testifying against co-defendant Chelsea Ross, 32, of Coleman, if needed.
Benchley confessed to Midland County Circuit Court Judge Michael Beale that he possessed methamphetamine and was a felon who possessed a stolen weapon. Benchley admitted he didn’t buy or register the weapon.
Benchley also admitted he put his child at risk, leading him to being exposed to a hazardous narcotic.

Ross is charged with possession of methamphetamine; second-degree child abuse; possession of narcotic/cocaine; and tampering with evidence in connection with the April 3 incident. The child, who is not hers, ingested fentanyl that she had allegedly mixed with liquid in a sports drink bottle.

The boy's heart stopped twice after he ingested the narcotic. Paramedics reportedly used Narcan both times to resuscitate him. The boy has since regained his health.

SENTENCING:

Benjamin Benchley was given 2 years of probation effective 12/23/2025

Chelsea Ross' case is ongoing.

Let's see if I get this straight... Obviously guilty... No consequences.
