"Pomona Mother Charged With Putting Toddler In Washing Machine
POMONA, Calif. 5.27.03, 4:11p -
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 Wednesday 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. The girl 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. The Associated Press"
