A Parkersburg woman who's children tested positive for drugs over the weekend was arraigned Tuesday morning.
30-year-old Michele Fleming was arraigned in Wood County Magistrate Court.
She is charged with 2 counts of felony child neglect as well as possession of a controlled substance.
According to the criminal complaint Fleming took her 5-year-old child to the hospital on Sunday when the child did not wake up from a nap.
