The future of an Indiana police officer is in jeopardy after he and his wife were charged with felony child neglect.

Cody Scott and his wife Kylie Scott, whose ages were not available, were both arrested and charged with two counts of felony neglect of a child following an investigation into an incident involving their 6-year-old daughter. According to court documents obtained by WTHR, a local NBC affiliate, a woman called 911 on Jan. 19 to report that a child was outside in 18-degree weather holding a sign. Several people had called to report the child and the sign, which read, “I want to stab and kill my brother. I even take an antipsychotic. If you need to give pity, then give it to the victims.”
