Sentenced: Jennifer Rose The Mother Of Child Taken From Home By Good Samaritan Is Arrested

[Sugar Cookie]

Jennifer Rose, the mother of 3-year-old Brandon Stratton, was arrested on charges of child neglect and abuse and multiple counts of child endangerment.

Last week, Stratton vanished from his home overnight and was later dropped off at the St. George Police Department the following afternoon. Police said the woman who took Stratton was concerned for his welfare.

According to a probable cause statement, the woman said she went to the house and saw it was "trashed." She told police there were moldy clothes, needles, and other drug paraphernalia all over and within the reach of the kids. The woman said she told Rose in the past that she would take the children if she saw drugs around them again.

The woman went on to tell police that she did not take the 6-year-old child that was in the home because he was asleep. The 3-year-old, however, was awake and had opened the door when she arrived, so she feared he may leave the house.

During a follow-up interview, police said Rose admitted she had gone to Mesquite the day before reporting the child missing to get drugs and meet a man to have sex in return for money.

The children were eventually taken by the Division of Child and Family Services. The 3-year-old was tested for drugs and it was determined he had amphetamine in his system.

But I'm glad they didn't. She was trying to help. Poor kids.

Thank fucking God someone stepped in to help these children. Lord knows they would be maimed or killed sooner rather than later.

Why didn't she just ring up the police right then and let them come and take both children.

Rose admitted she had gone to .... meet a man to have sex in return for money.

Yo, journalist, there's a word for that.

Yeah but that was just part of the whole ordinary everyday degradation ritual.

I guess she thought the six year old would be okay when they woke up and found their sibling missing.

I think there is a whole level of fuckery going on we will never know about.

Jennifer Rose, 38, was originally charged with marijuana possession, possession of drug paraphernalia, neglect of a disabled child, and two counts of child endangerment.

Rose’s charges stemmed from the disappearance of her 3-year-old son Brandon. Eventually, a family member, who said she feared for the child’s safety, took him to the police station as the search was ongoing.

Police said Rose admitted to them that she had gone to Mesquite, Nevada to meet a “John,” clarifying that she went to have sex with a man in return for money and drugs.

Rose was placed on a 24-month supervised probation and must continue with substance abuse treatment and comply with the Division of Child and Family Services.
