Mother Charged With Child Neglect After 2-Year-Old Spotted Wandering On Road

After a woman’s two-year-old child was spotted wandering — naked — in a nearby road, she was charged with child neglect.  Tezarah Hoepper is scheduled to make an initial court appearance in Chippewa County next week.  Stanley Police say their first contact with Hoeppner was last summer.  They found her asleep on a couch next to a two-month-old baby.  Eight children were in the home at the time, four of them hers and four more which were the children of other family members.  A home inspection determined it was unsafe for children to live there.
