Kingsport couple on bath salts abandon 4-year-old at Walmart

[DainBramaged]

A lone 4-year-old wandering into a Kingsport Walmart at 2:30 a.m., followed by a call to the store from the mother — nearly two hours later — saying she "lost" her son, has prompted the arrest of both parents.

Police ultimately located the couple, along with another child, age 1, in a van that ran out of fuel. Synthetic drugs were allegedly located in the vehicle, with the father admitting they had been using bath salts and Lortab.

According to an affidavit in Kingsport court, Jessica N. Fleenor, 27, and Jordon E. Finehout, 25, each of 737 Bluff Road, Kingsport, were arrested and charged with child abuse and neglect.

Court documents state Kingsport police were called to Walmart, 3200 Fort Henry Drive, at 2:50 Wednesday morning. Store personnel reported a 4-year-old child had walked into the store by himself approximately 20 minutes prior.
