Mother faces neglect counts in daughter’s bathtub death
The mother of a 16-month-old girl who drowned Saturday afternoon has been charged with two counts of neglect.
Noble County Prosecutor Steven Clouse requested a warrant Wednesday morning for the arrest of Maria M. Guzman, 23, of Ligonier. Later Wednesday afternoon, Guzman was arrested on two felony counts of neglect of a dependent, a statement released by Clouse’s office said. An autopsy was conducted Sunday, and Bianca’s cause of death was ruled as asphyxia due to drowning, according to the prosecutor’s office.
Police determined that Guzman had placed Bianca and her 2-year-old sister in the bathtub and then left the home for about 15 or 20 minutes. When Guzman returned, she discovered her 2- year-old was out of the tub, but Bianca was floating face down in the water, the statement said.
Comment: I cant get my mind around this one, how could anyone think it’s ok to leave a 1 and 2 year old in a bath alone for a half and hour
