Babysitter Poured Cleaning Powder Down 4-Weeks-Old Infant's Throat!
A 33-year-old Federal Way woman is behind bars following charges that she poured cleaning powder down an infant’s throat.
King County prosecutors claim Mabinty Williams was babysitting the 4-week-old girl on Jan. 10 when she poisoned her with a clothing soap. According to charging documents, police were called to her home after she told neighbors there was an “evil baby” in her apartment.
According to charging documents, Federal Way police arrived at the apartment in the 29200 block of Military Road South to find the baby suffering from chemical burns on her face. Investigators contend Williams, a certified nursing assistant, told police the child “changed” while she was watching her.
Writing the court, Detective Brigit Clary said Williams had been watching the girl since about 8 a.m. that morning as a favor to some family friends. In the four hours before police arrived, Williams had called her husband 16 times to complain about the child.
Just before noon, Williams knocked on her neighbors’ door.
“There’s someone in my house,” Williams allegedly said. “It’s a baby, and it’s evil.” Williams went on to say the baby’s eyes “changed to blue” while she watched.
The neighbors called police, who responded to find the infant gasping for air and covered in white powder, Clary told the court. The baby was bleeding, and had chemical burns near her mouth; a nearly empty 32 ounce jar of Totally Awesome Power Oxygen Base Cleaner was found nearby.
Williams was arrested at the scene. According to charging documents, Williams nonsensically claimed to have seen a man standing near the baby but could not explain where he came from, how he left or what he did to the child. She allegedly said the child’s eyes “went blue,” and denied pouring cleaner on the infant.
A pediatrician at Children’s Hospital determined the child sustained chemical burns on her mouth and eyes.
Writing the court, Senior Deputy Prosecutor Charles Sergis noted Williams may have mental health problems. She has no criminal history.
Williams has been charged with second-degree assault of a child. She remains jailed on $100,000 bail.
