OBN Agent Chuck Sutterfield said he then learned Glenn's and Nelson's child died in July 2023 and that the cause of death was still under investigation, the report states.

Agents received the medical examiner's report in January 2024, which showed the baby's blood tested positive for both fentanyl and methamphetamine. The report also showed the child also had a pulmonary edema in the lungs, which is common in opiate overdoses.

RIP Abel Lee-gone too soon

I am just happy they will not get away with what they did.

Will they get the sentence they deserve, of course not.

How does a four month old accidentally overdose? They don’t crawl or anything to get into stuff yet

Do they use the drugs in the same room, was she nursing him and using the drugs? Is this smoked, and the baby breaths the smoke in.? Do these people not read how dangerous this drug is to innocent babies? This is a continuous stream of reports on infants, too young to crawl and ingest the drugs on their own.
