Workers Violently Abused Babies at Daycare in 'Exceptionally Shocking' Misconduct: Court Docs

Elizabeth Wiemerslage, 22, and Chloe Johnson, 24, were arrested in Minnesota after police found security camera footage of the women allegedly abusing infants under their care at Small World Learning Center. The women are accused of violently flipping babies and pushing them down into pillows. Law&Crime’s Jesse Weber combs through the heinous accusations and speaks with state Rep. Nolan West, who says he removed his own child from the daycare center not long before the arrests.

They were abusing babies for over a year! How dare they give them bail! The Justice system is Broken!

[ashleighzirkelbach]

The fact that 5 years Is the maximum for child abuse is just disgusting In itself

[Eattits]

If babies make you that angry why would you even want to work around them..

[miranx]

My daughter cried so hard when being dropped off at daycare that my mom said “children don’t cry like that for no reason. Remove her and find a different daycare.” I did. She didn’t cry like that at the next place.

[virginiaordaya]

If we have cameras to catch people rolling through stop signs, we NEED to have them in every childcare facility.

[FlintGirl]

Elder, child and animal abuse of ANY kind should all be prosecuted to the fullest!!!!

[Jade_]

Make it a federal law for cameras to be installed in ALL daycare centers. THIS is not an isolated issues!! Wake up parents!

[dannyt]

All daycares and classrooms should have cameras with people monitoring them. This is crazy and becoming common.

[angelayoung]

It’s absolutely disgusting for anyone to abuse the helpless. Abuse to anyone is wrong but to intentionally hurt those poor defenseless babies is another level.

[miz.harrington]

Infants should NEVER have an incident report EVER! Unacceptable and sickening

[es-chkj]

I’m sick of hearing about children getting hurt by people they are suppose to trust

[ehcmier]

Psychopaths go where the vulnerable are.

[ashleymarie]

and that’s why my kids don’t leave my side until they’re competent enough to tell me exactly how their days go and how their teachers are.

[MelanieFrench-ce]

Lowest of the low. Abusing babies. They're out on bail? For real? 🤬

[kathleen]

You think serial killers are the worst of society and then you hear a story like this.

[septembersapphire]

Parents need to start popping in unexpectedly to see their kids no matter if its at a daycare or a private home.

[tracyhale]

I went broke, and wasted my bachelor's degree so i could stay home with my babies. No regrets.

[rayvenbell]

Forget prison, they would be on life support if that was my child. I’m glad those parents took action and those babies did not deserve that.

[gaiaiulia]

This sounds like systematic abuse rather than someone losing their temper. Just absolutely horrifying. I

[ieattofu]

So much hatred towards innocent children. SO demonic.
