A Warren man has been held for court in connection with an incident where he allegedly provided suboxone to a drug-dependent 2-month-old.

Brandon L. Quattrone, 38, was held as a result of a Wednesday preliminary hearing. He has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child, possession with intent to deliver and possession of a controlled substance,

Police allege in the criminal complaint that Quattrone “did administer suboxone to a female child” — 2-months-old — and “did so because the child was suffering from withdraws (sic) from suboxone caused by use during the mother’s pregnancy as well as breast feeding.”

According to the affidavit of probable cause filed with District Judge Raymond Zydonik, police received a report from the Warren County Jail that Quattrone “and a female inmate, Bridget Putman” were in an argument on a jail phone call.

Jail phone calls and messages are recorded.

Putman, per the affidavit, told Quattrone to “go get her some.” Quattrone declined, which kicked off an argument. “Bridget (Putman) yells ‘you can’t make her go without.'” Quattrone tells her he just left the hospital.

Putman is then quoted as saying “you told them it was breast milk, you didn’t tell them you were given it to her.”

In the criminal complaint charging her, police allege that Putman “did crush up suboxone and mix the crushed up suboxone with breast milk and formula which was then provided” to the child or “frozen for future use.”

Putman waived her right to a preliminary hearing back in February and were continued to the next trial term earlier this month.
