Korean Woman Receives Six Years In Jail for Killing 2-Year Old Boy Who Took Toy From Her Daughter
|What is wrong with people?:
A 30-something woman has been sentenced to six years in prison after being convicted of killing her acquaintance’s 2-year-old son, who allegedly harassed her 1-year-old daughter, a local court said Saturday.
The unidentified woman was arrested in October last year when she threw the 2-year-old at her acquaintance’s home in Asan of South Chungcheong Province, about 100 kilometers south of Seoul, after getting angry at the boy for pushing her daughter while trying to get a toy from her.
The baby boy suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was pronounced dead at the hospital the following day. [Yonhap]
You can read the rest at the link, but the woman is appealing because she did not intentionally seek to injure the boy. What did she think was going to happen when she threw a two year old across the room?
