Rhonda Jewell was arrested for aggravated manslaughter after a child in her care died after being left inside a 133-degree car on Wednesday, the Baker County Sheriff’s Office said.
According to Jewell’s BCSO arrest report, Jewell picked up the 10-month-old baby girl around 8 a.m. to babysit.
The report said that Jewell, 46, has been babysitting the baby since June. She said she picked the baby girl up from her home and then drove to Burger King, but the line was too long then drove off.In the report, she told deputies she assumed the baby was asleep, so she went inside the house and started interacting with the other kids. Then she told deputies she forgot the child was in the car.
At around 1 p.m., the mother of the baby girl arrived and saw her child inside the hot car not breathing and also had blue lips. She called 911 and the baby was taken to Ed Fraser Memorial Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.Jewell’s arrest report said one of the detectives touched the baby’s skin and it was very hot to the touch and asked medical staff to take the baby’s temperature.
Jewell was placed under arrest. She made her first court appearance on Thursday morning and BCSO said her bond was set at $25,000 with GPS monitoring upon release.
