7 year old kills infant in home daycare

How messed up is this? A 7 year old girl picked up a 10 month old infant and proceeded to drop her on the floor - twice! The baby died soon after.

Isn’t 7 years old, old enough to understand that you cannot throw a baby on a cement floor? And, don’t young psychopaths usually start out with animals?

Police said a 20-year-old daycare provider was with six children in the basement of Bray’s Family Day Care when she went upstairs to change a diaper.

The woman told investigators minutes later she heard something and went back into the basement and noticed Posten was on a love seat and not in the child’s seat where she had left the infant, police said. The woman said the infant appeared to have blood near her ears.

The woman told police she called 911 immediately.

Investigators later learned the 7-year-old girl had taken infant out of the child’s seat, police said.

The 7-year-old said she picked up Marcia and threw her to the floor at least twice, which is made of cement but covered by carpet, according to police.

    I think its unfair to pass judgment onto a 7 year old child without knowing how she was raised. IF the 7 year old was not taught right from wrong or was abused she needs help.

    We dont know if she picked up this 10 month old and threw her or the child threw herself back in a tantrum. This is why ALL DAYCARES should have camera’s. I hope the babysitter gets hers also she should NOT have left them alone for ANY reason.

    I think the Child Care Provider is responsible! She was in charge and it was probably her who did it! As a child care provider you know which kids need watched hence forth she needs to be in jail for neglect.

    If the seven year-old wasen’t abused, she should be charged as an aduld with one charge of second degree murder. The one who left the 7-year old in charge should face one charge of manslaughter, and one charge of child endangerment
