Couple arrested after Dartford parents filmed giving baby vodka

A woman is shown on video footage administering a clear liquid from a bottle of vodka to a little child.

Following the release of video showing a young baby being given a shot of vodka, two persons have been taken into custody.

12-second footage of a lady, thought to be the child’s mother, putting alcohol into a cap and offering it to the child.

It can be observed that the mom is pouring out the beverage and then tilting the baby’s head back before she pours it into their mouth.

An individual from Dartford who is thought to be the child’s father can be seen standing in the background seemingly unaware of what is taking place.

Dover, Delaware, police have since confirmed that they responded to allegations of a disturbance on June 21 early in the morning and were dispatched to an address in the city.

A police official stated, “Upon arrival, officers were made aware of concerns concerning a kid at a local residence.”

“Actions were taken to protect those affected, and a man and a woman were detained the same day on suspicion of child abuse.”

They were subsequently released on bond, and an investigation is ongoing.
