A Louisiana mother and grandmother were charged with murder on Friday after they forced a four-year-old girl to drink half a bottle of whiskey, as punishment for taking a sip.
Roxanne Record, 53, and her daughter Kadjah Record, 28, were each booked into the East Baton Rouge parish prison following the death of Kadjah's daughter China from acute alcohol poisoning.
The little girl had a blood alcohol level of .068 more than eight times the .08 legal limit for people over 21 to drive when she died.
Police were called to the home in the Windsor Place area of Baton Rouge on Thursday morning, to reports of an unresponsive child.
On arriving at the home, on Wallis Street and Harco Drive, they were told by China's siblings that the grandmother was angry because the little girl had taken a sip of the Canadian Mist whiskey, left on the counter.
As a punishment, the child was told to kneel on the floor and finish off the remaining half of the bottle.
Kadjah Record watched as her daughter was forced to drink the liquor, which gave her a blood alcohol content of .680.
Drivers in the state of Louisiana are considered legally drunk when their BAC is .08 or more.

Perhaps I’ll be in the minority here, but I think this a tragic incident. Those women will likely never forgive themselves.
Good thing the child did not find some drain cleaner.
The 2 of them combined have the IQ of a turnip.
It’s hard to find the words to describe the revulsion we feel about this. I can’t find words. To say that some people shouldn’t have children doesn’t convey the right opinion. To say that they deserve prison doesn’t convey it either. What a damn shame that some idiots are responsible for children.
Article should have said blood alcohol level of .680 instead of .068.
Do I need to look?
? You can’t be serious.
Nope
I remember when my dad caught me “smoking” a cigarette when I was a child. He then made me smoke (inhale) a cigarette. That did put me off of them for a time. I’m sure these were stupid, ignorant women who wanted to discourage the child by giving her a hangover. While I don’t believe they intended to harm the child, they killed her just the same and must pay.
Bet not they knew what would happen nobody is that stupid not to know.
Why the hell did a child have access to whiskey in the first place?
With idiots like these two raising her, that baby didn’t have a chance.
Monsters Inc.
What does her shirt say?
Srsly? Go visit them in prison then. Bring Butterscotch Krimpets and HoHo’s.
Second one this week. A couple put liquor in the 4 months old baby bottle and killed the kid. Same persuasion for what it’s worth.
Atchoo, drawn out
They’ll be released and told not to do it again , black privilege
