Mom Arrested After Posting Baby With Bong on Facebook
KEYSTONE HEIGHTS, Fla. -- A woman who thought it would be funny to post a picture of her baby with a bong on her Facebook page has been arrested.

Nineteen-year-old Rachel Stieringer was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia.

A Texas resident called Florida's abuse hot line after seeing the picture online of the baby posing with his face in the bong.

She told a detective she thought it was funny that her son put the bong into his mouth and looked like he was smoking pot so she snapped a photo on her phone and sent it to a few friends.

She has no idea how it got on her facebook page.

Clay County Sheriff's deputies say Stieringer turned herself in July 29 and was released on $502 bond.

A spokesman for the Department of Children and Families said Monday the baby had no injuries and drug tests came back negative.

Stieringer's mother, Sharalyn Harris, told reporters the picture was a wakeup call for her daughter, who is going through drug counseling and parenting classes and says the grandparents are now caring for the baby.
