A 48-year-old Bedford County woman is now facing a stack of felony charges after state police say she repeatedly supplied methamphetamine to teenagers — sometimes in exchange for babysitting — and even took one of them along on regular drug runs.

According to charging documents, the case unraveled when a 15-year-old girl spoke with Pennsylvania State Police and disclosed a disturbing pattern of drug use and exploitation. The teen told troopers that Susan Kennedy would bring her along to her dealer’s house as often as once a week, exposing her to methamphetamine and the world that comes with it.

The complaint alleges the behavior didn’t stop there. The 15-year-old said she gave Kennedy money to buy meth for her and claimed she would babysit the dealer’s children in exchange for the drug. Another teen, just 14 years old, was also pulled into meth use, police say.

At one point, the girl told investigators, her addiction spiraled so badly that she was using as much — if not more — meth than Kennedy herself.

When questioned by troopers, Kennedy attempted to deflect blame, claiming the teenager would “get into my stuff” and steal meth she tried to hide. Investigators were unconvinced. Police say Kennedy admitted to buying and delivering meth to the teen’s boyfriend on at least two occasions.

The result is a long list of charges that paint a grim picture: multiple felony drug counts, multiple felony child endangerment charges, and additional misdemeanor counts related to both drugs and the welfare of minors.

What stands out most to investigators is not just the drugs, but the ages involved — children allegedly dragged into addiction before they were old enough to drive, vote, or legally consent to anything at all.

Now, as the case moves forward, Kennedy faces the full weight of the criminal justice system. And at its center are two teenagers whose childhoods, police say, were traded for meth — one babysitting shift at a time.
