Mother allegedly trafficked daughter to drug dealer for heroin

[jaysabi]

This is one of the most horrifying things I've ever read: a mother offering the rape of her daughter for drugs.

Child sex for heroin allegation 'sad, but not surprising'

A Warren County woman allegedly traded her 11-year-old daughter to a Cincinnati drug dealer for sex in exchange for heroin.

On numerous occasions, she allegedly went to the 41-year-old man's apartment in Camp Washington, dropped her daughter off, left and came back several hours later.

The 41-year-old man then allegedly had sex with the girl, sometimes videotaping it.

On one occasion, the mother allegedly injected her daughter with heroin.

Those are the upsetting details of an indictment announced by Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters Monday morning.

Thirty-year-old April Corcoran of Pleasant Plain has been charged with 27 felony counts, including complicity in rape, complicity in gross sexual imposition, endangering children, human trafficking and corrupting another with drugs.

The man, Shandell Willingham of Cincinnati, has been charged on 26 similar felony counts.

If convicted of all charges, Corcoran could face life in prison, Deters said.

The crimes allegedly occurred between Feb. 15 and June 6 in 2014, DeWine and Deters said.

Wow, that's one of the sickest things a parent could do to their offspring. However, this is the drug war in action. The woman can't afford the heroin because the illegal market drives the prices up so the addict either has to steal, prostitute themselves, or in this, case abuse their own daughter to get high. If heroin was legal, it's price would be similar to that of tylenol or aspirin and then the addict can get all they need and not abuse anyone else to fulfill their habit. Both of these conspirators should be locked up til death. And, God help this daughter have some sort of normal life down the line but my guess is she won't be able to.

This is pretty sick. I hope both the "mother" and the dealer will get many years behind bars to think about what they were doing.

I agree with you to an extent, but I don't think you can blame prohibition for this. Prohibition is not an excuse for enabling the rape of your child. Full blame rests with the woman, regardless of whether drugs should or should not be legal. It's just so terrible to think about the betrayal that child must feel.

You can never predict what a person who is so heavily addicted to a substance will do to get a little more of that sweet sweet substance.  I have met a few alcoholic's in my time and they really are hopeless.  this child is just a sad victim of circumstance.  This has actually happened in a few video game addictions, where some people in korea sold their children for money in clash fo clans (Which is like the worst game to sell your children for).  It is real sad.

[Bit_Happy]

Sad, but not surprising pretty much sums it up for me.

Many people cannot come close to thinking such a terrible drug should be legal, but...:
1) If legal, even the worst drug would be dirt cheap, so addicts would not have such a hard time getting the next fix.
2) There would be plenty of room in the prisons for people who commit actual crimes, since people who commit "victimless crimes" would not be in jail.
3) Young kids would not be recruited as new dealers/users, since the Huge black market profit motive would be gone.

Would some new people start since the drugs are cheap and legal?
Maybe, but that is called "freedom of choice" and it is much better than what we have now.

what a horrible mother, selling her own daughter for drugs like that... a lifetime in prison is not enough to pay for her sins. I hope she get nightmares every night.

That sounds like it will depress the hell out of me.

It will, but denying your mind this suffering is denying it growth, and wisdom.

such a bad person ... whether she was on drugs or not as a mother she shouldnt have do that ...

[Santoso]

She is not a mother. She is a devil in disguise. Disgusting. She chose to be a "slave" of heroin.
I am thinking about the daughter's future. It was told that the "mother" injected heroin as well to the daughter. Does it mean she could be a junkie also??
I hope she would pay her sins with full of suffering in jail for a lifetime.

Lets be honest though, if drugs like this were legal then she would be forced to get them from properly registered places and if she were trying to do really dodgy shit with her daughter it could be reported to the police.

Rather than this being an indictment of the "horrible mother," this is nothing but a lesson in what seriously addictive drugs does to a human.  Most people have no real clue what "Physical addiction" means and implies.
