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.

Just a postpartum abortion, a protected Democrat position thus “nothing to see here.”

To me this is unbelievable:

Lockner was also ordered to complete parenting classes.

This little boy has not been placed for adoption, and is still in the care of the mother that tried to drown him?

Apparently now in this country having a vagina is literally a License to Kill.

Be very afraid.

Standard punishment for attempted retroactive abortions.

Infanticide has been normalized.

Yeah a I thought leftists and feminists support infanticide now because fetus viability isn’t until about 6 months out of the womb.

The baby daddy aunt has the baby. She also has an older child she birthed in her bathroom at home.

Vile.

It’s attempted murder.

God will judge her even if the shameless legal system won’t.

I will withhold comment except to say that what I was going to say would have included a prison toilet.

Wait. They put that baby back in her "care"?

It minimum, the kid should have been permanently taken away and adopted out, never to be seen by her again.

My wife and I get into big fights when I make this argument, but if a MAN was doing this, he would be doing real jail time.

If the baby had died, the “mother” would have likely gotten a year or two in prison, maybe.

They do. That’s why the “mother” wasn’t given any jail time.
