No prison time for woman who tried to drown newborn in McDonald’s toilet

REDWOOD CITY, California – A 27-year-old Redwood City woman won’t serve any time in prison for holding her newborn baby facedown in a toilet moments after giving birth at a McDonald’s restaurant restroom more than a year and a half ago, prosecutors said.

On Friday, San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Garratt placed Sarah Jane Lockner on four years of supervised probation. Lockner was also ordered to complete parenting classes.

Lockner was originally charged with attempted murder, but she pleaded no contest to a lesser charge of felony child endangerment on Jan. 14 after Garratt said she would consider imposing a sentence lighter than the four years she had previously offered.

According to prosecutors, Lockner gave birth to a baby boy while working as a cashier at the McDonald’s (snip)

Lockner went to the restroom several times with complaints of stomach pain. During one trip, a co-worker noticed blood on the floor, which Lockner reportedly dismissed as her having a “heavy period.”

A second co-worker who went to check on Locker during another visit looked over the stall and saw a newborn facedown in the toilet, with Lockner’s hand on his back, prosecutors said. As the coworker stepped down, she told investigators she heard the toilet flush.

Lockner reportedly told the co-worker not to call police, but the co-worker did anyway, and responding officers found the baby boy not breathing and without a pulse.

He was rushed to a hospital and placed in a medically induced coma, but has since recovered.In an interview earlier this year, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said the child was living with his father’s aunt and meeting all his milestones.

The bathroom birth was the second for Lockner, who delivered a baby at home about five years ago, according to prosecutors.

Heck, just for that, she should have an inside track on becoming a star in the Democratic Party.

I'm thinking this is a perfect case for forced sterilization.

When I was born, my mother tried to drown me in a McDonald’s toilet.

Anything after that beginning has got to be better, right?

1) There is no “more” at the link, the article ends there.

2) Second offense, also alleged by Big Media to have been in a bathroom, and zero jail time — another leftist “hero” exercising her god-given right to murder her child, whenever “necessary”.

Murder’s been legal in California since OJ, and sanctuary cities.

The judge gave her probation and ordered parenting classes?? This woman should be nowhere near children.

The criminal defense lawyer rule of thumb is that juries are inclined to forgive mothers who kill their own kid but not for killing someone else’s kid.
