Controversial photo of baby lands grandmother in trouble

For the grandmother it was a joke, but to child services, it was child endangerment. After Jackie Sheaks posted photos of her granddaughter in a roasting pan and one where her pacifier was duct taped to her mouth, law enforcement stepped in to address possible child abuse. “We would never go out of our way to harm these children ever! Ever!” she told NBC4, and continued on to say that the tape wasn’t on the babies mouth for long, and only remained on for the length of the photo. The grandmother has said she will not be taking any more posed photos again, after the immediate public backlash they caused. According to the station, the family has not heard about any charges.
