A woman in Texas is facing nine serious charges for allegedly making her teenage daughter have many medical procedures that were not necessary and could have been harmful. One of the procedures included putting in a feeding tube that the daughter did not require.

Denise Zamora, 40, was arrested by Tarrant County police on Dec. 18 after suspicion grew concerning the medical treatment of her 15-year-old daughter. According to the 20-page arrest affidavit obtained by KDFW, a local Fox affiliate, Zamora was caught on camera during a hospital visit when staff questioned her account of her daughter’s condition. Zamora was allegedly seen “taking a syringe from the vanity and using the syringe to insert what appeared to be a clear unknown liquid into the victim’s feeding bag and then taking the feeding bag down and pouring some of the contents into a cup … then presenting to the nurse that the victim had thrown up.”

The Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office accused Zamora of allegedly lying to medical professionals for years about her daughter’s health and putting the girl through several unnecessary procedures for health issues she never had over six years.
