Tasha “Nortia” Ford made her initial court appearance in Justice Court Monday afternoon. Judge Jeff Crevitt set a $50,000 bond, Sheriff Martin Pace said.

Ford is accused of child neglect involving her failure to have her 3-year-old child treated for a sexually transmitted disease. She was arrested on a warrant charging her with felony child neglect when she went to the Sheriff’s Office to talk with detectives Todd Dykes and Stacy Rollinson about the child.

Pace said they don’t know at this point if this was a sexual assault and they are still investigating.
