Two former Tucson TV personalities have been sentenced to a year of probation and suspended 30-day jail terms on endangerment convictions after tests showed traces of cocaine in their baby.

Krystin Rae Lisaius and husband Somchai Lisaius were sentenced Monday in Pima County Superior Court after pleading guilty Aug 31.

They could have been sentenced to up to two years in prison or probation.

Police say the then-4-month-old baby was taken to a hospital on May 15 after being breastfed and appearing to be in distress. Tests revealed there was cocaine in the baby’s body, and police learned the couple had had a party the night before.

Charges of child abuse and drug possession were dropped under a plea agreement.
