ST. PETERS, Mo. A St. Charles County woman is accused of leaving a loaded rifle in her toddler's crib.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Cheryl Darlene Dudley, 37, of St. Peters is charged with seven counts of endangering the welfare of a child, along with one count of child abuse.
Police went to the home Monday after someone reported seeing Dudley's 22-month-old daughter tied to the garage with a rope.
Police say they found a loaded rifle in the toddler's crib. Dudley allegedly said she put it there after hearing noises in her back yard.
Police say they also found narcotics in a dresser within reach of the toddler and a 7-year-old, and feces-covered living conditions.

I was always suspicous of Teddy. I figured the bear was running a drug operation from my toy box. I do know he was also pimping my sister's Barbie to my GI Joes.
