A woman has been charged with abusing a 3-year-old girl who is fighting for her life in hospital with life-threatening injuries, according to police.
Lindsay Partin, 35, was babysitting toddler Hannah Wesche when she called emergency services to report that the toddler had become unresponsive. The call occurred shortly after Hannah’s father dropped her off to Partin around 7 a.m on March 8.
The child was transported to Fort Hamilton Hospital and then flown to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital in a critical condition.
After police questioning, Partin admitted to striking the child and said the 3-year-old had fallen and struck her head on the concrete garage floor the previous day, according to the sheriff’s office. Police are still investigating how the child received her injuries.
“I mean it’s unimaginable. I can’t begin to explain the feeling of losing a child at the hands of this ... of just a violent act. Hannah was great ... I can’t,” Jason told the news station.
No further details have been released.
Partin posted a $30,000 cash bond. She was released from jail on Monday afternoon.
