Teen Mom Star's Wife Arrested for DUI, Child Abuse
24 May
Summary
- Amanda Conner arrested Sunday morning near Chattanooga.
- Charges include DUI, child abuse, and driving on the wrong side.
- Husband reportedly called police due to suspected drug use.
Amanda Conner, wife of 'Teen Mom' personality Ryan Edwards, was arrested on Sunday morning near Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office Jail confirmed her booking on multiple charges. These include driving under the influence (DUI) and child abuse/neglect.
Additional charges filed against Conner involve driving on the wrong side of the road. Her bond was established at $16,000. As of the time of reporting, it appeared she had not yet posted bail.
Should Conner be released on bond, she will be subject to a no-contact order. This order prohibits her from interacting with the alleged child victim and the individual tasked with the child's care until at least her court date on June 3.
Dispatch audio suggests the arrest followed a call from her husband. He reportedly alerted authorities, expressing concern that Conner might be using narcotics and refusing a drug test. He also allegedly stated she had departed with their baby in the vehicle.
