Amy Slaton, star of 1000-Lb Sisters, has pled guilty to a drug possession charge following an arrest earlier this year in Tennessee. The legal agreement spares her jail time, instead placing her on supervised probation. Slaton also agreed to complete an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program, pay a $500 fine, and avoid the Tennessee Safari Park, where the incident occurred. Charges of child abuse and endangerment were dismissed as part of the plea deal.
The September arrest unfolded after Slaton visited the safari park with her two children. Police reportedly found psychedelic mushrooms and marijuana in her car, leading to her detention. In a bizarre twist, Slaton was bitten by a camel during the visit and had to receive medical attention. Images captured her being lifted into an ambulance on a gurney.
The discovery of drugs in her vehicle while her children were present added severity to the situation. However, the legal resolution focuses on rehabilitation rather than punishment, with her attorney reportedly working to ensure she avoids further complications.
This case marks another dramatic turn in Slaton’s public life, which has been under scrutiny since her rise to fame on the TLC reality series. The plea deal allows her to continue her recovery efforts and focus on her family.
