Tina Durant has been charged with child endangerment after police say
the 37-year-old she allowed a 24-year-old friend have $€x with her
11-year-old daughter, who is now pregnant.
Jacob White was arrested on July
17 and charged with third-degree $€xual abuse after the 11-year-old
turned up pregnant and after her parents read Facebook conversations
between the girl and White.
But police ended up arresting Durant on Friday after witnesses came
forward to report Durant was fully aware that White was having $€x with
her daughter.
According to witnesses who lived in
the home, White slept in the same bed with the victim. They said they
addressed it with Durant who did nothing to stop it. According to the police report, the girl was heard telling her mother, “I tried to tell you several times,” during a doctor’s appointment.
Because she failed to notify law enforcement, call the Department of
Human Services or taking any action herself, Durant was charged with
child endangerment. She’s since been released and will be back in court
on Sept.9.
White is also out of jail and a court appearance has not been scheduled
for his case. My guess is prosecutors are wanting a slam-dunk case
against him and are waiting to do a DNA test on the kid’s kid.
One of Durant’s neighbors said he’s not surprised at the charges. “No.
Nothing surprises me anymore,” he said, “Just too much stuff goes on
over there. People go in and out. You never know who’s going and coming
any time day or night.”
