A Delaware daycare worker has been charged with first degree murder after police say surveillance video showed her covering a baby’s mouth and nose for more than three minutes.
According to the New York Post, Dejoynay, 19, allegedly placed the baby in a crib and waited about 20 minutes before reporting the incident at the Little People Child Development Center in Bear. Reports identify the baby as a girl about 4 months old.
Police stated that she “placed her hands over the victim’s mouth and nose and intentionally restricted her breathing until she became unresponsive.” She was held on a $1 million cash bond. Police also said the daycare’s license was suspended indefinitely.
No response from Dejoynay was included in the reports we reviewed. A charge is an accusation, and she is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
