The mother and father of a 9-month-old are facing charges after the baby overdosed on heroin that they reportedly left all over their home. 

Last Monday, a mother was changing her infant’s diaper when she noticed the child was lethargic and pale. She called the authorities for emergency assistance. 

When the first responders arrived at the house, they reported that the child was not breathing. They believed the youngster had overdosed on opioids, and they administered a dose of Narcan.

A psychiatrist and his assistant are facing criminal charges after a year-long investigation allegedly showed that they were taking part in illegal sales of narcotics for cash.

67-year-old Dr. Leon Valbrun resides in Long Island. He practices psychiatry in a New York City office, and 34-year-old Po Yu “Brian” Yen works as his assistant.

Last summer, after many people notified them about the situation, the authorities believed that the location of Valbrun’s office had become a common area for people searching for drugs to congregate.
