Police Arrest Mom For Allowing Daughter Get A Tattoo

Mother to a 12-year old has been arrested and charged for allowing the child get a tattoo.

The child's fifth-grade teacher at Arnco Sargent Elementary in Newnan, Georgia, discovered the student with a tattoo that reads, "Jesus loves" on her right shoulder. The case was eventually reported after another fifth-grade teacher saw the tattoo on the student's shoulder on a  day she wore a strapless outfit to school.

According to the teacher, the tattoo is "bluish green with Jesus written above the cross and loves written below."

The girl upon being interrogated first claimed her father made her get the tattoo. She however, later changed her story saying she wanted it and getting it had nothing to do with her father.

The girl's mother, 35-year-old Emma Nolan, stated that the girl no longer sees her father and that she had no knowledge about the father letting her get a tattoo.

Nolan and the tattoo artist Brenda Gaddy were later booked into the Coweta County Jail for tattooing the body of any person under the age of 18.
