Woman sentenced for drugs, endangering the welfare of a child

MADISON COUNTY, N.Y. -- A Madison County woman will spend the next one-and-a-half years in state prison for keeping drugs in her child's crib.

Kaila Lohr of Oneida was sentenced Thursday to one-and-a-half years, with two years of post release supervision. Lohr pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a controlled substance, as well as endangering the welfare of a child back in September. She was arrested in January of this year after police discovered that she hid packaged cocaine in her child's crib.

Two children under the age of six were in the home when police found the drugs. Her children have been placed with other family members.
