‘1000-lb Sisters’ Star Amy Slaton Arrested on Drug, Child Endangerment Charges </a>
</p>

<p id=”par-3_38″>“It was just supposed to be a fun family day, and it turned out to be the worst day of our lives,” Amy says of the trip to a Tennessee safari park that turned into a tabloid nightmare. </p>
<p id=”par-4_28″>While visiting the park, a camel bit Amy, as seen in a teaser for the new season (via <a href=”https://youtu.be/FInSIjzOJ24?feature=shared” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>YouTube</a>). But that wasn’t the most shocking event that day.<br></p>
<p id=”par-5_38″>“After the whole camel-bite incident, the cops came in and started reading me my rights,” Amy – who was arrested after cops found evidence of marijuana in her car – recalls. “They should be handcuffing the damn camel.” </p>
<p id=”par-6_44″>Amy thinks the camel is the problem, but her family is worried about her behavior, including her new hot-and-heavy romance with a guy who’s already urging her to get her tubes untied so they can have a baby. Her <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/1000-lb-sisters-season-5-amanda-halterman-wanted-weight-loss-surgery-second-time.html/”>sister Amanda Halterman</a> isn’t impressed. </p>
<p id=”par-7_9″>“She should go have a cold shower,” she says. </p>
<p id=”par-8_23″>Later, Amanda and her siblings stage an intervention with Amy, whose behavior they fear is out of control. Amy doesn’t take it well. </p>
<p id=”par-9_23″>“The problem is, every time somebody wants to talk to you, you want to jump up and storm off,” a frustrated Amanda replies. </p>
<p id=”par-10_14″>Will the threat of serious time behind bars be enough to scare Amy straight?</p>
<p id=”par-11_24″>“I’m scared sh*tless,” she says as we see her prepare to go before a judge. “I just hope I don’t ruin my whole life.”</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-tammy-slaton-has-more-insecurities-than-ever-over-her-loose-skin”>Tammy Slaton has ‘more insecurities’ than ever over her loose skin</h2>
<p id=”par-12_35″>Meanwhile, Tammy is dealing with challenges of her own. Thanks to her <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/1000-lb-sisters-tammy-slaton-exceeds-weight-loss-goal-closer-skin-removal-surgery.html/”>successful weight-loss surgery</a>, she can enjoy activities that were off-limits before, such as zip lining. But she’s not entirely happy with her appearance. </p>
<p id=”par-13_28″>“I’ve come so far in my weight loss journey, but now I have even more insecurities about my body because I have so much loose skin,” she says.</p>
<p id=”par-14_24″>Plus, Tammy is keeping a big secret from her family – one which could cause quite a stir once it comes out, she hints. </p>
<p id=”par-15_19″>“There’s something I haven’t told my family,” she says. “Because my family gonna have something to say about it.”</p>
<p id=”par-16_13″><em>1000-lb Sisters </em>airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on TLC beginning April 15. </p>
