When he looked in the car he saw a baby boy in a car seat. The windows in the car where rolled up and the baby was covered in sweat. The baby’s skin was very red and he was gasping for air. Officer Galbraith immediately got the baby out of the car and called for medical assistance.

“Waterloo Fire Rescue arrived, treated the baby and transported him to a local hospital. Officers located the mother about 30 minutes later in an apartment building nearby. The mother, Shawna Raeann Bailey, age 24, of 439 Vermont Street, Waterloo, IA was charged with Child Endangerment.”

sad thing is.. how many other times has she done that before she got caught.

it seems like a woman caring for her child is becoming a lost art so to speak.

you ever go into a store and see a mom buying herself food and drink but yelling at her kids who only want the same thing she has.. food and drink.

how are you payin for your food and drink?
im sure a nice chunk of the money you get comes from having kids,but yet they are the least of your worries drop’em off at grammies 6 days a week while you lie about working alot. dont blame men soley for your plight in most cases you knew what he was before you got pregnant but didnt care because doing drugs or being cool is worth more to you.

i hate that a whole generation is being destroyed before they even get a chance due to selfish parents.

I read a news story that said some parents leave their kids in a hot vehicle on purpose and then pretend it was an accident. It’s the perfect way to get away with murder when you have a kid you don’t want. Sickening? I would say!

3rd degree theft to assault causing bodily injury and more. What a great mother.

Did she say half black ???

She’s 5’5 and a half, black hair, yada She hasn’t a clue how to punctuate.

Katie, focus on something else. Take your OCD on grammar and punctuation and get yourself a coke and a smile. U Have U a nice day and dont ferget 2 shop local.

I was commenting on Anonymous’ inability to figure out what this chick was saying on her FB page and why s/he read it incorrectly. I was just trying to be helpful. The world is full of people who don’t give a crap about quality or always giving 100% when possible. I’m not one of those.

Oh, well i interpreted that all wrong then. I apologize for being a asswipe.

how i feel

y do guys have to be so psychotic n assholes….all i do is support their funky asses n stay by their side n dont cheat or anything n i still get treated like shit n it sux not one guy i know n have been with was a man n its stupid…if u cant be real n a grown ass man dont talk to me n stay outta my face…n i also hate when guys knock up girls n then cant take care of their kids n wanna be assholes about it so the next guy who has the nerve to hit on me better hope ur a real man!

WHAT??? Mason City is a great town and any meth users are just a small % of the rest of all the good people we have here. Visit again sometime,when you’ve left your hateful heart at home,in WATERLOO!!!

She “loves spending time with her wife and kid.” Unless it interferes with methamphetime hobby. I guess that’s how she “keeps shit real.”
I hope part of her punishment includes tubal ligation.

Don’t send her to prison–that’s too good for her. Simply strap her in a car. Park the car in the sun. Roll up the windows. Walk away and leave her there with no knowledge of when she’ll be released or how long she will suffer. That’s exactly what she did to her child. People should be punished for abusing a child by treating them exactly the way they treated the defenseless child.

You can move to the Mid-East with the rest of the people who want biblical punishment involving and eye for an eye. The bible was written there and they still carry out punishment in that uncivilized way there. Go there and practice your biblical beliefs.

Katie, Katie, Katie,

Eye for an eye is good punishment.

We need more of that in America. I am for moving those biblical beliefs to America.

Bleeding hearts have cause this huge increase in crime.

I am not a bleeding heart. I believe in humane punishment, not torture or mutilation. The bible is the history of uncivilized cultures. Unfortunately, plenty of them still survive in the Mideast.

Was not this woman’s treatment of an innocent child a form of torture? It certainly was inhumane treatment. I’m sorry you believe my punishment is too harsh. Try working somewhere that treats victims of child abuse and then see if you still believe abusers deserve “civilized” punishment. It changed my opinion.

KATIE
YOU OBVIOUSLY DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN!! OR JUST PLAIN STUPID!!

Lol, dude…BUT do you know what her COLLEGE GPA was?!

“biblical beliefs” — “eye for an eye”

Please read the entire Bible before preaching. Get the whole Story. The Bible is not a how to guide for punishment. Don’t leave out the New Testament.

I’m glad you guys aren’t the ones making the laws and setting the punishments. We’d have lynchings before trials if you had your ways. Due process would be out the window. Everyone deserves a fair trial, even the guilty. I get sick of legal loopholes, too, and I feel that judges are way too lenient, but I do believe in trials. I had a cousin murdered and a suspect was arrested. The defendant was found not guilty. By the end of the trial, my cousin’s mother had decided that the defendant was truly innocent. The evidence presented proved to her that he had not murdered her son. They never found who did it, but she knew that justice was done in that trial for that person. How can one not believe in due process when this type of thing happens? Yes, there can be cut and dried cases of guilt, but there still need to be trials to protect the suspect from people like you and your ideas of justice. We are a civilized society. We are better than that. We need to set the bar for decent, humane behavior.

But we need to stop tolerating the crap we are seeing in society. We need to crack down on bad behavior in schools, whether the parents like it or not. Parents should NOT be able to dictate how their children are disciplined in school. I do not mean corporal discipline. I mean attitude adjustments. Special assignments, special behavior counseling, separation from “bad” influences at school, whatever that child needs to be turned around. They should be forced to participate in some type of sports or other extracurricular activity to keep them busy and out of trouble. And the parent should have no choice because way too many parents are enablers of their children’s bad behaviors. And parents who do not cooperate should be reported to DHS for failure to parent appropriately. Yes, it would be a hell of a mess, but so is our society. And you can all see what society has become. We have people like this chick not giving a crap about her child. Rampant drug-fueled narcissism among our youth. Meth dealers all over the place. Not enough prisons to hold the repeat offenders. Twelve and thirteen-year old girls having sex with much older men just for the heck of it. Our schools need to teach ethics, not religion. Good old right and wrong.

Nowhere did I say that a child abuser should not be given due process and a trial. Under our justice system everyone is entitled to that. My point is that a prison term given a convicted child abuser does not equal the mental and physical suffering he/she foisted on an innocent child who had no idea when the abuse would end or even if it would end. Would it satisfy your sense of civility if a convicted child abuser was given the choice of whether to spend a specific time in prison or endure the exact abuse he/she gave to the child? My guess is that 100% would choose the former.

I’m with you.

With Katie’s way, she just be released with MAYBE a slap on the wrist. Our way…guaranddamntee she’ll NEVER do it again.

That right there is white trash at it’s finest. I’m surprised that she is not from Mason City. You’re more then an asshole at times you are a big POS all the time.

There is a special place in hell for women like her. Crack head hoe. Hope she never gets her baby back.

I want to know how the heck she got into any college with such poor writing skills!

Writing skills? Are you f-n kidding me? That’s all you got out of this is her writing skills?? Wow. Who gives a damn about her getting into college with whatever writing skills. OMG! How about the fact that she almost killed her kid!! Thank goodness we don’t have grammar/spelling internet yahoo nazi’s deciding what crime she committed.

She’s been caught and will hopefully be punished to the full extent of the law. It’s damned lucky the cop found the child in time. I hope we aren’t wasting our tax dollars on paying for her to go to college when she shouldn’t have graduated from high school with these poor writing skills. She definitely isn’t smart enough to go to college OR to have a child.

Please do not claim you do not know where babies come from.

babies r us?
