5:11Now PlayingA San Francisco couple faces murder charges after a 2-year-old child died from a fentanyl overdose in an apartment littered with drug paraphernalia, officials said.
Michelle Price, 38, and Steve Ramirez, 43, are charged with second-degree murder and child endangerment. While they are not currently in custody following the Feb. 12 death, District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said they will be remanded.
Price is the child's mother, and Ramirez is the woman's boyfriend.
The filing marks the first time Jenkins has pursued murder charges in connection with a fatal fentanyl overdose.
Authorities responded to a 911 call regarding a child not breathing at an apartment on the 3800 block of 18th Street around 5:16 a.m. Medics found the toddler dead, displaying signs of rigor mortis and lividity that suggested she had been deceased for several hours.
A toxicology report later confirmed the cause of death as acute fentanyl toxicity.
"There was fentanyl found in this home that was loosely out and available to this toddler," Jenkins said. "It was clear to me that these parents were aware of its lethality and the danger of fentanyl."
