We swear this pandemic is bringing out the crazy in people!

A mother in Houston, Texas has been charged after authorities say she put her 13-year-old son in the trunk of her car. Reports say that the boy had tested positive for covid and his mother, in an attempt to quarantine him, put him in the trunk of her car and then drove to a covid drive-up testing site.

"The 41-year-old is charged with endangering a child. Authorities allege her son was found on Monday in her car’s trunk at a testing site for the Cypress-Fairbanks school district in northwest Houston. The woman is a teacher with the district, which said in a statement that the child was not harmed.

The charge was filed Wednesday but not made public until Friday January 7, 2022.

The school district’s director of health services, Bevin Gordon, was gathering information from vehicles that were in line for COVID-19 testing at a district stadium on Monday when she discovered that the 13-year-old was in the trunk of a car, according to a court document.

“(The mother) stated that she put (her son) inside the trunk to prevent her from getting exposed to possible COVID while driving (him) to the stadium for additional testing,” according to the court document."

We don't even have the words to express how bad this could have turned out for the boy. Thankfully no harm came to him.
