You want to talk about making bad decisions? You think you make poor choices? Join the crowd.
This woman from Phoenix, Arizona made one bad decision after another.
The first poor choice was to get pregnant while still a teenager. The second was to be involved with people who do drugs. Her third was driving while intoxicated. Finally, for the coup-de-gras lost her 5-month old. This according to ABC15.com.
Police received the call of a baby in a car-seat in the middle of the street at 1a.m.
Two friends of the culprit became witnesses for police and identified the mother as 19-year-old Catalina Clouser.
The Real Story
Police had originally thought Clouser had forgotten about the baby. It turns out she just had a few things to do. Clouser and her boyfriend had been smoking marijuana in a nearby park earlier.
Clouser and her boyfriend then reportedly took the baby with them to buy beer around 11 p.m. and the boyfriend was stopped by police for aggravated DUI after he was suspected of and processed for being impaired while driving with the baby in the vehicle.
Clouser was upset and drove back to the home of the friends where they admittedly smoked one or two more bowls of marijuana. Another bad decision.
After smoking more marijuana Clouser was heading back out and had apparently put the baby on the roof of her car and got inside, forgetting the baby, and drove off.
When she got home, she realized what she'd done and called her friends to check the route she drove because she feared the baby had fallen from the car.
Well, the baby did fall from the car – in an intersection a few blocks from the home she just left. This is a sad story where a drug class could help, but this woman has serious issues that are going to take time to work through.
