Mother gets jail time for dragging son out of bed
Placeholder Image
A mother has been given three weeks in jail for dragging her slumbering teen-age son out of bed after he refused to get up. The mother, Felicia Basham, was ordered by Circuit Court Judge Bart Stanley to serve 22 days of a three-year sentence and must undergo anger management for domestic assault. She was granted a judicial diversion on the charge, meaning she can have her record erased once her probation is over.
