Dawkins is also accused of trafficking psychedelics. While the specific amount is not specified, the warrant alleges that Dawkins possessed more than 100 but fewer than 500 LSD dosage units.

Deputies also reportedly discovered a tiny amount of marijuana, a grinder, two smoking pipes, and a marijuana tray.

Dawkins was arrested on Sunday, November 17 the listed offense date and charged with negligent child abuse with serious physical injury, trafficking in LSD, possession of LSD, delivery of LSD, possession of up to an ounce and a half of marijuana, and possession of marijuana paraphernalia. The latter two charges are misdemeanors, while the first four are felonies.
