POT-SMOKING MOM

Woman Pleads To Charges

A Conewago Township woman pleaded guilty Monday in Adams County court
to charges that stemmed from smoking marijuana with her 13-year-old son.

Amanda Lynn Livelsberger, 30, pleaded guilty to corruption of minors
and drug possession charges. Livelsberger admitted she has been
smoking marijuana with her son since he was 11, usually as a reward
for finishing his homework. The boy said his mother told him smoking
marijuana would help him forget about his father, who is in prison
for selling crack cocaine.

A sentencing hearing is scheduled for Nov. 27, where she could spend
up to 17 years in jail and pay up to $36,000 in fines. Her driver's
license could also be suspended for six months.
