YouTube Video Of Toddler On Ecstasy?

Authorities Investigate Video Of Infant, Possibly On Ecstasy, Taken By Group Of Young Girls

(AP)  The FBI is helping authorities in Houston see if any crime was committed when a group of young women videotaped themselves laughing at a toddler and joking that the child had taken Ecstasy. It's unclear whether the tot had actually been given the drug, authorities said.

The video appeared on YouTube.com before being removed and is on other Web sites.

The young women told an investigator that they got bored during a return trip from Padre Island and were playing with the little girl, who was following instructions to roll her eyes back, said Lt. John Martin, a spokesman with the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

The video, which runs 2 minutes, 28 seconds, was taken in a van and shows a girl who appears to be about 2 years old. As the young women tease her, the toddler rolls her eyes back until only the whites show.

Some of the women can be heard laughing and seeming to suggest that Ecstasy might be responsible for the child's behavior. It also shows an infant being handed around in the back seat.

"Cookie, stop rolling, girl. ... You shouldn't have popped no X," says one of the young women, as she squeezes the little girl's cheeks and taps her on her head, telling her to stop rolling her eyes. "X" is a slang term for Ecstasy.

In addition to the two children, there were seven people in the van — the toddler's 21-year-old mother, two other adults and four teenage girls under 17, he said. All are from Houston, and no charges have been filed.

Area authorities became involved after clues in the video indicated it had been filmed in Texas. A map of Jackson County can be seen in the video, and an announcer for a Christian radio station in Houston can be heard in the background.

What MORONS! I pray they weren't foolish enough to actually give drugs to a child.

All these websites: YouTube, MySpace, etc. are EVIDENCE that can be used against you in a court of law or get you kicked out of school.

BEWARE!

[candy-apple]

Just goes to show that not all women, or should I say women-child, should be mothers!

[rushlimpdrug]

Hope a drug test can give them evidence of whether or not the little girl was given the drug.
If she was all the bitcches in the car need to be prosecuted.

[willylou11]

Yeah let's hope they didn't actually give the kid ecstasy. But also, the kid is 2 years old, and they said there was a baby being passed around to. If the vehicle was moving, why were they not in child restraint seats. I thank God that they didn't get into an accident while they were horsing around with the video camera. I shudder to think what would have happened if they had.

[xzavierbrown]

I wonder if Osama would allow this liberal lifestyle? Must be, liberals are fighting bush tooth and nail on behalf of Osama and his radical islamic dogma.

[dmk3]

rushlimpdick,
if it was just a prank and no drugs were given to the child are all of the other females still bitcches?

[shanev137]

These people need to be arrested.

[mandylou4u]

I cannot believe "no charges were filed"...Are these people related to someone in law enforcement or something? They have plenty of visual evidence of other things going on in the car that these dumba@@es should be at least prosecuted on that! Every time I see someone driving and their kids are all over the car, I call the highway cops on them. Kids are defenseless and they depend on us to take care of them. I feel sorry for those babies. They have morons for mothers!

[mickeyp2814]

Go watch it at liveleak. They girls look like they are "rolling". Also you her one girl say, "don't f**k with my high". When will there be a law requiring a license in order to have a child? Oh all this and listening to christian music! I hope they take that child away from that "mother"!

[mandylou4u]

Hi dmk3, I do still believe these women are bitcches because they could care less about their kids if they aren't going to buckle them especially on a long trip. Anything could have happend to them. I'm just glad we aren't commenting on..."Two young children died in a car accident today. Reports showed that neither of the children were in child seats."

If this is what you think, then you better go ahead and label most of America as terrorists. Can I buy a clue for 200 Alex?

[bequialife]

this is the dumbing down of american, this, rap music, what a shame. Our civilization deserves to die off if this is what we are coming too. Thank goodness this country is slowly being taken over by the Asians. They are extremely smart, productive, and would never do anything like this.
We all need a form of birth control immunization that is reversable. Like the mumps, rubella,etc. All babies/infants get a birth control immunization shot, then later in life when that person can prove he/she is financially and emotionally responsible, then reverse the immunization procedure. WE have got to do something about breeding; not everyone has the right or entitlement to bear children.

[dmk3]

Hello mandylou,
The article does not state that the car was moving and judging from the picture it looks to me like the female is bending over the child. Still does'nt make them bitcches, hella irresponsibe but bitcches? Nah. If in fact x was given to this child then by all means punish them. Lets get all of the facts first.

[rushlimpdrug]

rushlimpdick,
if it was just a prank and no drugs were given to the child are all of the other females still bitcches?
Posted by dmk3

Yes, they are in a moving vehicle;
Yes, they are bitcches, probably ho's;
Yes, anyone "playing" with a child the way they are show lack of responsibility;
Yes, I saw the video;
Yes, all the idiots in the car should be punished;
Sad to say some looked underaged and joked about the drug.
Any more questions?

[smb221]

Just shows you that children should not be having children!! Her mother may be 21 years old, but she stills acts like a 5 year old.

[netywiggs]

i hope they are found before the kids are killed.
the kids should be taken away even if its a sick prank --maybe it will make them grow

[olebd]

Even if they didn't give this poor kid drugs, they are acting irresponsibly. Joking like this and carrying on like this in front of a 2 year old will help to doom that child in the future. That is if a careless accident caused by these morons doesn't take the kid first.

I hope they get charged with neglect regardless.

[hypnotoad72]

Devolved and disgusting. What the hell is happening in our society? Wait, are we a society? Or a nation of individual men, women, and families?

[dmk3]

Hey rushlimp,
Yes, I have more questions. In the video how do you know that the vehicle is moving? And what exactly makes them *** or hoe's? Where they being *** y? where they acting hoe-ish? I am not justifying what has happened, and agree that it shows lack of responsibility. But why such ugly names for the females?
And I couldn't find the video. Where did you find it?

[seaslew]

Hi DMK,, its posted on Parent behaving badly and it was on Nancy Grace last night,
FOX has it also..

peace

[seaslew]

DMK.. if you dont find it posted go to Foxnews Houston TX,,, they have it, it is very distrubing , very very very, ..
i want to adopt Cookie, they call her COOKIE in the video and I'm sure because she is so sweet,,, what a shame to treat her like this

[dmk3]

RUSHLIMPDRUG,
MY APOLOGIES. I just watched the video. I can understand why you would want to use the language that you did regarding this subject and the females in the vehicle. However, I don't think the kid was drugged. It looked like she was doing something that she saw someone else doing, or knows that it gets a laugh when she rolls her eyes like that. But yes they should all be prosecuted.

[tonic1661]

These people are very poor role models for little children and should lose custody.

Anyone who violates the innocence of children and jeopardizes their futures with such poor judgment is just trash.

[Netterz]

Completely disgusting, no matter how you look at this video. The kids have obviously learned behaviors from there environment, and teasing about drugs is just plain wrong, and for the s called mother to allow it, wrong. A car load of children, and that is what they come up with for entertainment on a car ride...lovely.

[chinesespy]

i take the x and so does my wife..who cares..the story isnt true its fake...oh and bye the way x is great drug

[genghis007]

I tend to agree with chinesespy. Been there, done that, but I don't do it anymore. I am now 40 years old, that is why. I would have never given X to a child at age 20, but I didn't see anything wrong with doing it at the time and still do not. From past experience, yes, this child does appear to be on X. So, all the people who have comments about something that they really don't know much about, should zip it.

a year or so ago mtv did a profile of a young girl of about 20 years old that moved to nyc and became a bit of a 'party girl'. after a year of nightly outings (many involving x) she started to suffer some strange neurological symptoms. ultimately she ended up seeing a doctor ... many of them ... to find that the x has severely affected her brain.

they show a chilling 3d image of her brain ... and it looked like swiss cheese ... with huge hollows that looked like tunnels ... roughly 25% of her brain was gone.

[olebd]

This stuff can literally fry your brain if enough is taken. The effect on he brain is similar to a low grade, sustained electrocution.

[cantshutup]

Personally, I have never done "X"...So I can't say whether or not I think this little girl is on drugs...I will say from experience teasing my son, nephews and nieces, that it is strange that there's not much of a reaction from the little girl in the video as she's being pinched, slapped and taunted...and that IS strange...On "X" or not, the fact that she's not in a car seat is a serious problem. Also, the teens and mother really show the kind of low life scum they are with their "drug" talk to this little child...Children should be allowed to be children and knowledge and discussion of any sort of drug is inappropriate around any child...I'm sure we will soon here of the removal of the child from the mothers custody...It's really sad to see the behavior of these teens and the mother, it really is disgraceful and is probably a result of their own poor upbringing.

[annia1233]

what an incredible experience reading this page. It is very, ...very.... (i have no adjectives for it) to read so many people does this drug and many feel "OK" about it. IDIOTS. Low lifes, imbesils, stupid waste of oxygen. Go do something productive, go to work and spend your money on your children or in school to get from the bottoms of the barrel. I beat all those buy the drug with welfare money. Nasty waste of oxygen for this country. We need productive people here and not druggies and nasty low lives with such weakness. I feel no pitty when your brains get so messed up and are drooling and pissing your pants, you did it to yourselves.

[genghis007]

I was 20 when I dabbled in X, coke, LSD, mushrooms, etc. I am now a senior executive at a billion dollar insurance company. Last I checked, no neurological problems. I can still think, speak, write, surf the internet (thank God for that). So, you see, there is this thing called sensationalized media, always trying to find the worst case scenario to blast across the airwaves. Or, the most shocking story, such as the Houston van video from U tube. I wonder what else is in this MTV girl's past health history? Hmmmm.....

[genghis007]

Hey annia1233, you can't spell. I learned how to spell in college & graduate school. I also learned how to not be a hater. I use these lessons everyday when dealing with co-workers and clients in the field. Hhmmm........

[cantshutup]

genghis007...I doubt anyone is impressed that you're a senior executive at an insurance company since insurance companies like to
s *crew people over for profit...since you're company is a "billion dollar company" apparently you've been s *crewing people over for some time now...You may not be seeing the effects yet of all the drugs you took in your 20's but that doesn't mean that someday you won't...

[cantshutup]

annial2333 may have some spelling errors but she got her point across...on the other hand genghis007, judging others is a form of hating...the only point you made is that you love yourself very much...

[genghis007]

I am so sorry that you have no idea what my job entails & I wouldn't even try to imagine what your job entails. It just again shows, stupid people making sweeping statements about something they know nothing about. And, the last thing I am worried about is how a little recreational drugs in my youth will suddenly ruin my health 20 years later.

[genghis007]

cantshutup, I think annia1233 did all of the name calling, right? Her point is that she hates all people who have ever done drugs and thinks we all are on drugs & are on welfare. I find that incredibly simple, shallow and small. Love myself, why not, I also love life and am a very happy, stable person. Can't wait to see what happens next.

[cantshutup]

really couldn't care less what a senior executive thinks about anything...after all, you're just a robot...ttfn!

[genghis007]

cantshutup - A robot, huh? Now you are name calling. I bet you even voted for George Bush.

The proof that you did those drugs is that you are on here posting with us instead of enjoying all the (supposed) money you have. If the stuff you stuffed into your system had not ("hadn't" for the underclasses here) addled your brain you would be elsewhere delving into the epicurean delights and thought provoking Art, to be found in Paris. If you are unsure how to utilize the bounty you have accrued give me a mere 10% (tax paid) and just follow my wife and I as we demonstrate the popular practice of 'wealth redistribution'. and currency circulation. This will leave you still quite well off and more able to get the most out of life. "remember, you only go round once". Do it right the first time. ;)

hopefully your luck will continue.

i have a similar past ... i've tried nearly everything that was available (in my time)... but i wouldn't touch this.

http://www.mdma.net/toxicity/damage.html

the mtv profile was a chronic use (way beyond dabbling)... nightly for a year ... no doubt in combination w/ many other mind altering substances as well.

[toolmangler-2009]

From 15 to 19 yrs old I was with a group that experienced almost everything that was available in the 50's. There were ten of us that hung out together. By the time I got married at 26, four were dead of ODing, Three were in prison for life (one after his death sentence was commuted to life w/o parole), one was in and out of trouble for 12 years until he got lucky and met the right woman who immediately understood his main problem and helped him get straight. As for me, I was blessed by GOD because I was alergic to alcohol and was unable to drink and I had watched My friends selfdestruct on drugs and Booze and chose a role that kept me near them and put me in a position to help and advise. I never talked down to them and was always even tempered with them. It kind of helped that I was able to whip any of them one at a time, and they respected me because I didn't flaunt it. It was just understood and never contested but once. I can tell you this much, drugs used for recreation are one of the most destructive things I have ever witnessed. there is no 'safe' drug, each one has its own way of pulling you under.

[rushlimpdrug]

dmk3 - no problem. I somehow figured you hadn't seen the video.
Some of the postings I read are odd.
The guy bragging about being an executie at an insurance company - what a laugh.

[mr19after6]

I'm 32 years old. I still dabble with stuff every now and then. But stuff like this, really pisses me off. These girls should get convicted and sentenced for a long time. They have NO right to give a little toddler any type of drugs.

[zootallures2]

What about the 10 zillion videos of the controlled demolition of the World Trade Center towers and Building 7? I think they were doing more than rolling their eyes. If someone can get away with that, why bother with anything else? I had a feeling back in 1980 that yawl was gonna do something stooooopid, but I never imagined just how stupid. This video here with the baby don't come close.

[mom1166]

First of all, why was this child on the floor ard and not in a car seat. Hello...that is evidence enough as far as I am concerned. If the police let them go these people are getting away with murder. Ecstacy can surely kill a child and I hope the police do not believe their BS. Scumbags. You can't believe that these people exist but they're out there! It's just incredibly sad.

Hey, lady, why is your chitty country bombing children all over the world? Maybe because you and your government are really bigger morons than these ladies? Why not open your big mouth about that? These ladies were spreading deomcracy and freedom. If other toddlers see what X does to this one, they'll all bow and worship "Mr. and Mrs Important" in their limo. OOOH, their so admirable. Is it the van? It's ok when you do it from a cell phone in a limo?

[frybri2u]

Simple solution. Find those responsible, give and give them a fair trial just before they're drawn and quartered.

This is total BS and a complete waste of time. I watched the whole video. This is nothing more than a kid that can roll here eyes into the back of here head. The other kids were playing with her and taking movies. No drugs were used in making this video. The only people on Ecstasy are those that see drugs everywhere. This is a screwed-up paranoid adult interpretation of kids playing with each other. We all did this kind of stuff growing up. Give it a rest
