Babysitter puts toddler in sleeping bag and throws him against the wall

UPDATE 1: Babysitter reportedly blamed the death of a toddler she was babysitting on her own, 3 year old son, accusing her toddler son of killing the toddler she was babysitting.

This chick is something else.

Poor judgement is the understatement of many who wind up killing an innocent child.

I don’t know if people aren’t vetting their babysitters properly or if there are just psychos out there, very good at covering up their psychosis. At any rate, makes you nervous about babysitters in general.

I’m sure the mother is riddled with guilt, although, unless there was a reason to suspect this babysitter, it’s probably not her fault.

HARTFORD, Conn. — An 18-month-old boy has died from a severe head injury he suffered when his baby sitter swung him around in a sleeping bag for fun and it accidentally hit a wall, Hartford police said.

Elijah Gasque was brain dead at about noon at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center after being injured Friday evening in his home on Main Street, police said. The boy was kept on life support overnight as doctors prepared his body for organ donation.

The baby sitter, Yalines Torres, 25, of Hartford, was charged with risk of injury to a minor and reckless endangerment early Saturday morning before the boy died. Police said additional charges were expected. She remains held on a $500,000 bond.
