Brenda Kay Kelley handed her daughter $150 about two weeks ago and told her to buy her some acid at school, according to an arrest report. The daughter did as she was asked, police said.

The report does not identify Kelley's daughter's school.

Police went to Kelley's home to assist an investigator with the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Offices' child protective services unit who was checking the welfare of the child, the report states.

Kelley, 37, told officers they could search her home, at 1923 W. North A St., the report states. Police found three glass pipes that tested positive for marijuana use and two wooden boxes containing a small amount of marijuana, rolling papers and other drug paraphernalia, the report states.

Kelley was charged with felony child neglect by exploitation and possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, both misdemeanors. She posted $8,500 bail this morning and was released.
