Amy L. Brown, 54, of Cross Road; Jennifer S. Occhino, 29, of Cheektowaga; and Patrick V. Occhino, 24, of Buffalo, were charged with endangering the welfare of a 1-year-old child because they were under the influence of prescription medications and unable to care for the child Friday afternoon, deputies reported.
