A 40-year-old Northern California woman was sentenced on Sept. 12 to 10 years in state prison for the fentanyl overdose death of her infant boy, authorities said.
Christy Ann Scarbrough of Chico, a city 85 miles north of Sacramento, received the maximum sentence under California law from Judge Kristen Lucena after pleading no contest to causing the death of her son on his first birthday, according to a press release from Butte County District Attorney Mike Ramsey.
“While the sentence today is not enough because an infant lost his life, it is the maximum allowed by California law and serves as a reminder of the consequences of fentanyl use,” Ramsey said in the release.
The district attorney said Scarbrough found her son face down and unresponsive in his crib on the evening of July 6, 2023. The boy appeared blue, and she immediately took him to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
