Mom arrested after covering 8-year-old son’s face with duct tape



An Ohio mom thought it’d be hilarious to wrap gray duct tape around two kids’ foreheads, eyes and mouths, leaving only their noses open.
Now she’s the one in a sticky situation.
Police and child services came knocking at Tiffany Ennis’ door on Feb. 19, after she texted photos of her duct-taped second grader to the boy’s father. Dad Rudy Yado was worried about his 8-year-old son’s safety, but Ennis was in it for the laughs.
“I never think she was crazy enough to do something like this,” Yado told ABC.

The jokester mom and a friend were playing around with duct tape in Ennis’ Sandusky, Ohio home. She decided to tape up her son because the two adults thought it was funny thing to do, ABC News reports. An 11-year-old girl, whose parents remain unidentified, was also wrapped with tape.
Ennis insisted that the children weren’t hurt by the debacle and that no harm was intended, according to a police report.
The boy’s dad disagreed.
“That’s not playing,” Yado told ABC. “She took the joke way too far.”
He tried calling his ex back, but couldn’t reach her. So he turned to the police, Fox 8 reports.
Det. Sgt. Dana Newell arrested Ennis on Tuesday, taking her down to the Sandusky police department. The mom later signed herself out.
Ennis has full custody of her son, according to ABC News. Newell told ABC that he could not confirm whether the child was still staying with his mother.
Ennis pleaded not guilty to two charges of child endangerment. She’s due back in court on May 30.
