The St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office on Friday charged 32-year-old Cherelle Nolan with first-degree endangering the welfare of a child.
The St. Louis County Police Department said officers responded at 3 p.m. on Feb. 1 to the 10400 block of Count Drive after 1-year-old Harmony Baker became unresponsive and stopped breathing.
Officers began CPR on her and she was taken to an area hospital, where she was pronounced dead.Â
A probable cause statement accused Nolan of exposing Harmony to fentanyl, leading to her death. Police said Nolan admitted she has a fentanyl addiction and is the only person in the home who uses the drug.
Nolan is being held on $250,000 cash-only bond with no 10% allowed.
Detectives with the St. Louis County Police Crimes Against Persons Unit are leading the investigation.
