An Ohio woman is facing charges after pretending her daughter had cancer.
Multiple social media posts show 41-year-old Pamela Reed portrayed her 7-year-old daughter as having leukemia.
Reed allegedly collected thousands of dollars from people and organizations who thought they were donating to fund her daughter’s treatment.
An affidavit revealed the girl’s elementary school figured out what was happening after Reed said her daughter was blind in her right eye.
Officials conducted their own eye exam and became suspicious. They then contacted a medical provider, who confirmed the child did not have cancer.
Reed has been charged with theft by deception.
A judge set her bond at $50,000.
