A little repetitive, no new news but seems like the little girl is okay.
Mother of girl found in washer is charged
POMONA - Prosecutors charged a woman with felony child endangerment Tuesday for allegedly putting her 2-year-old daughter into a washer at a coin laundry and closing the door, which started the machine.
Erma Osborne, 35, of Pomona, was scheduled for arraignment today in Pomona Superior Court, said Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Gail Ehrlich.
Osborne remained jailed in lieu of $50,000 bail.
The woman allegedly put the girl into a washer at Lucy's Laundromat in Pomona on Saturday. Authorities said the washer had unexpired time, and when the door closed it began operating.
The woman and bystanders were unable to unlock the machine, so police were called. They used batons to break open the washer's glass window and rescue the submerged girl. She required stitches on her arms and legs and was in stable condition Tuesday at Children's Hospital in Orange County, the District Attorney's Office said.
Most front load washers cannot be stopped mid-cycle so this sounds odd to me. Bottom line, there is NO reason to put your child inside of a washing machine, let alone CLOSE THE DOOR. . . put her in the little laundry carts.
