Fentanyl Overdose Conviction
(Hillsboro, OR) -- A Beaverton mother has been found guilty of assault by a Washington County jury in the overdose of her two-year-old child. Prosecutors say in 2023, Megan Meek's child was in the back seat of her car, along with a bag of fentanyl pills. When she arrived at her babysitter's house, the toddler wasn't breathing. Police administered Narcan, but the child overdosed again at the hospital, because so much of the drug was in her body. Meek will be sentenced in August.
