Carter County Tennessee resident Jordon Paige Hensley was arrested on May 4 and was charged with forcing her 5-year-old son to smoke a cigarette.
Carter County Sheriff’s Deputy Cory Tidwell told the Johnson City Press that 24-year-old Hensley was arrested on charges of child abuse and neglect, disorderly conduct and possession of marijuana.
A jail officer said Thursday that Hensley was being held on a $12,500 bond. Jail records did not show if Hensley has hired an attorney.
Deputy Tidwell said that in response to a complaint by a witness, he stopped Hensley while she was driving.
Hensley told him she she had forced her son to smoke a cigarette because “she was teaching him not to smoke.”
Tidwell also said he found a small bag of marijuana in the car.
