Usually children are omitted or blurred from crime stories.

Good point.

The Washington Post story, naturally, omitted the photo:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/the-baby-was-crying-too-much-so-the-sitter-burned-the-childs-feet-on-a-hot-pan-police-say/2017/03/29/9c8a42d4-14b0-11e7-ada0-1489b735b3a3_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.c0ecdf8cd1b0

And even seasoned law enforcement were aghast at the photos:

“Bladensburg police were called Saturday to Children’s National Medical Center in the District, where hospital staff reported a 6-month-old child with severe burns to her feet, according to Detective Cpl. Charles Earle. The child’s parents told police that they suspected their daughter may have been injured when she was under the supervision of Ramos-Mendoza, Earle said.
Blisters covered the baby’s feet, which also swelled from the burns, Earle said.”

“Other seasoned police officers and investigators that have seen the pictures say it’s heart-wrenching,” Earle said.”
