    Couple arrested for home tattooing 6 of their underaged children

    Georgia Couple Arrested For Tattooing Their Six Underage Kids with Guitar String, Homemade Device
    Tattooing six of their underage children with a jerry-rigged machine, using a guitar string as the needle, sounded like a good idea to Patty Jo Marsh and her husband Jacob Edwards Bartels at the time.

    But the Georgia pair failed to recognize the consequences of their ink fest, and they were arrested late last year after the biological mother of two of the children complained the tats wouldn't wash off.

    Go figure.

    Turns out Georgia state law prohibits both tattoos on children and those created by unlicensed artist.

    Marsh and Bartels were arrested December 28, and are charged with three counts each of illegal tattooing, second degree child cruelty and reckless conduct.

    Both bonded out of jail Friday evening on $10,000 property bonds each.

    Police say the "parents of the year" used a plastic pen body with a needle made from a guitar string connected to an electric motor to tattoo six children and themselves.

    Five children, aged 10 to 17, got a cross-like tattoo on their hands and a sixth had "mom and dad" inked on his arm — in honor of you know who..

    Only the youngest child was ink-free.

    The Georgia Department of Family and Children's Services was called. All the children were placed with other family members upon the couple's arrest.

    Marsh says she gave the children tattoos because "they asked us to."

    "It's unusual," said Chattooga County Sheriff John Everett, to the city's local paper. "I've never seen parents tattooing their kids like that."

    "I'm their mother. Shouldn't I be able to decide if they get one?" Marsh said accoding to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, after being released from jail on bail.

    "They weren't hurt by them," Marsh said to the paper.

    "We would never do anything to hurt them….I don't understand why this is getting 'blowed up' so big

    A coworker of mine was trying to explain this story to me at work today. She said the children were all ten and UNDER instead of ten and up, and that they had forced the tattoos on the children AND that they had put the children with cps over the incident. This article makes a lot more sense than what she said.


    Not that that thing looks sanitary, or that it was a good idea or whatever. But thank heavens for MDS. lol

    The story says he tattooed the back of his shoulder with DB. I have no idea what that pic is supposed to be, but it doesn't go with the story.

    Ugh, after reading this, all I can think of is a nine-year-old with 'Thug Life' tattooed across his chest.
    What in the world would make someone think doing that to a child is okay?
    Scumbag, stop stalking me through the interwebs.
