Cops: 12-year-old son begged dad to quit making meth inside home (La Porte, Indiana)

Is there a mother in this home? None is mentioned, and it doesn't seem like it. Otherwise, I imagine she'd be brought up on some sort of charges too. In fact, it sure sounds like dad ADAM TENER is custodial. If so, how and why did a meth head daddy get custody? Who gave him custody? And what happened to the boy's mother? 

And why does the media refuse the explain the custodial situations and decisions that put children in danger?

Cops: Boy begged father to quit making meth inside home

A La Porte boy begged his father to stop but methamphetamine, with its toxic vapors, continued to be manufactured inside their home.

That's the picture drawn from allegations filed in La Porte Circuit Court against 32-year-old Adam Tener, who is charged with Class C felony neglect of a dependent and Class D felony maintaining a common nuisance.

According to court documents, the La Porte Metro Operations Unit on Sunday was called to a mobile home owned by Tener at 1083 E. Ind. 2 on a report about a possible meth lab in the home in which a child was present.

Officers discovered evidence of a meth lab, along with methamphetamine and other drugs, as a 12-year-old boy sat on a living room sofa playing video games.

There also was strong chemical odor inside the home and evidence that meth had last been cooked in the home the previous night.

Information released after Tener's court appearance indicates meth was being made inside the home since mid-November.

Tener told investigators he was involved in making meth but had not actually cooked it recently.

He said Sebrina Hutson was doing most of the cooking lately and he was only assisting in the most recent batches, according to court documents.

Hutson, 25, was also arraigned Friday on counts including dealing and possession of methamphetamine, both Class B felonies.

Police said the meth was being made with chemicals and other ingredients reacting together inside bottles found in a bathtub.

Tener also told investigators his son ''has been begging him for some time now to stop what he has been doing along with Sebrina,'' according to court documents.

The boy was taken to the hospital for an evaluation due to the chemical odors and Child Protective Services was contacted. 

Police said evidence also was gathered that indicated meth was being sold from the residence.

Hutson told investigators she sold about half of the meth that was being made while the remainder she kept for personal use, court records disclosed.
