Couple in dock after 12-week-old baby almost dies from ingesting cocaine

Ella Jones and Kevin Fields were jailed after their 12-week-old baby collapsed from ingesting cocaine. The infant was taken to A&E, where toxicology tests revealed the drug caused the baby to become unresponsive. Before leaving the hospital, the couple told nurses they would likely be asleep if an emergency occurred. The court labelled the pair reckless after the newborn almost died, following the discovery of cocaine traces within the infant's system during medical examinations.
