A Georgia daycare worker was arrested and charged on Monday for severely beating a one-year-old boy at Little Blessings Child Care in Bainbridge.
Heartbreaking and shocking photos posted to social media show the precious baby boy suffered a black eye and lacerations to his face.
54-year-old Yvette Thurston was arrested and charged with first-degree aggravated battery and three counts of felony child abuse.
According to reports little baby Clay Weeks was beaten on his first day at the daycare. He was immediately taken to a local hospital for evaluation.
Authorities have reviewed surveillance video of the beating; however, the footage has not been released to the public. No other details of the horrific beating have been released.
Thurston’s bond was set for a measly $44,000, and she already bonded out of Decatur County Jail.
