Milwaukee County Court MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A 3-month-old baby is dead, and his mother is now charged in connection.
Prosecutors say the child died March 22, and multiple drugs were found in both his baby bottle and in his system.
A toxicology report showed the boy's cause of death was from mixed drug toxicity -- fentanyl, xylazine, heroine and oxycodone.
Thirty-one-year-old Tashae Goodman of Milwaukee appeared in court Wednesday, May 20, on charges of first degree reckless homicide and chronic neglect of a child.
According to the criminal complaint, after calling 911 to report that her baby was not breathing, Goodman told the dispatcher that she'd slept on him.
Bail has been set at $100,000. A preliminary hearing is set for May 28.
