Additional charges have been filed against the mother of twin boys, who fell mysteriously ill this week, and her live-in boyfriend.The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office on Friday charged Laurel Corrine Gray, 29, of 5959 John Burruss Road with one count each of reckless conduct, hindering the apprehension of a fugitive and tampering with evidence.Her boyfriend, 27-year-old Michael Robert Conley, was also charged with reckless conduct and obstruction of an investigation.Sheriff's Investigator Mike Garrison said one of the boys remained hospitalized in critical condition Friday with an illness that has puzzled doctors and authorities.The other twin, as well as their 3-year-old sister, have been released to the custody of the Georgia Division of Family and Children Services.Garrison and Sheriff's Sgt. Joe Whirlow explained that the reckless conduct charge stemmed from prescription medicine being left on a night stand where the children could reach it. They said the medication was not prescribed to either Gray or Conley. Gray also reportedly destroyed evidence pertinent to the investigation.Both suspects have been held at the Forsyth County Detention Center since they were arrested Tuesday.
