According to the fox4news.com website, 56-year-old Lisa Campbell-Goins was arrested on New Year’s Eve after being accused of medically abusing her 7-year-old granddaughter.

The fox4news.com story goes to state that Campbell-Goins was arrested on Tuesday, Dec. 31 and charged with the exploitation of a child, injury to a child, and unlawful restraint.

According to an arrest warrant affidavit, Campbell-Goins currently lives in Voss in Coleman County. She was arrested by authorities in Tarrant County because her granddaughter was being treated at Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth.

The affidavit states Campbell-Goins began caring for the little girl when she was a baby because her biological mother was not able to care for her.

Campbell-Goins took the girl to Cook Children’s Medical Center in August 2023 because of severe dehydration, vomiting, and diarrhea.

At the time, doctors found ulcers in her GI tract and damage to her lower intestine and colon. But they weren’t sure what was wrong with her because her “illness presentation did not match a known medical diagnosis,” the affidavit states.

The doctors ended up giving her a gastric tube as a method for administering medication. The affidavit states Campbell-Goins pushed for them to feed her through the tube as well.

The little girl’s symptoms seemed to improve and then worsen, perplexing doctors.

Then, in January 2024, several of the girl’s family members contacted authorities because they suspected Campbell-Goins was poisoning her through her gastric feeding tube.

Campbell-Goins was asked to leave the hospital because she is not the child’s legal guardian.

Investigators said the little girl’s doctors, nurses, and hospital sitters began to notice improvements in both her behavior and health after her grandmother was out of the picture.

Following extensive interviews, investigators now believe the girl may have been poisoned with an alkaline substance, possibly Mean Green Degreaser cleaner.

A family member also said Campbell-Goins had a bottle of fingernail polish remover in her bedroom and in the victim’s bedroom.

They also believe Campbell-Goins gave her sedatives to control her and used a tent-style bed at home and in the hospital as a form of punishment and restraint.
