Woman Charged With Murder After Her Newborn Twins Die With Drugs In Their System

A Tennessee woman was arrested on Tuesday and charged with first-degree murder after her newborn twins, who were born prematurely days earlier, died with several different types of drugs in their systems.

Tiffany Marie Roberts, 29, of Chattanooga, Tenn., was also charged with viable fetus as victim and aggravated child abuse or neglect in connection with her infant children’s deaths.

Roberts readily admitted to using ecstasy on the same day she gave birth, but she also tested positive for other drugs, including cocaine, oxycodone, Roxicodone, methamphetamine, and benzodiazepine drugs, on three different occasions when she went to the doctor for prenatal check-ups, court documents said.

Both babies died two days later at Children’s Hospital.
