A Virginia second grade teacher sentenced to two years in prison for having drugs at school and being intoxicated in class took her child with her to buy drugs just a few days before she was arrested, prosecutors said.

On May 16, 2024, Candyce Carter had her husband take drugs to her at Spotswood Elementary School in Spotsylvania County, prosecutors said.

Staff found her behaving erratically and lying on the floor of her classroom, with a bag of drugs nearby, prosecutors said.

On the day of her arrest, school staff also found Carter’s husband, Kristopher Carter, unconscious in the parking lot with their child in the car, prosecutors said.

Paramedics revived him with Narcan and evaluated all the students in the class to make sure they hadn’t been exposed to the drugs.

Candyce Carter pleaded guilty in February to 19 felonies, including possession of drugs and child endangerment.

Kristopher Carter also pleaded guilty to child endangerment and distribution of drugs.

A judge sentenced the Carters each to about two years in prison.

The Carters both apologized in court for their actions, with Kristopher Carter saying he feels “completely ashamed” and Candyce Carter saying there are no words to take away the stress she caused to the community.
