Disgrace Nigerian nurse docked for murder of disabled baby in New York
An evil Nigerian nurse has been arrested for her complicity in the death
of a disabled baby just as she was about escaping the US.
A 54-year-old Nigerian nurse
practicing in New York, USA, Oluyemisi Adebayo, has been arrested and
charged for the murder of a disabled 23-month-old baby, Naomi Mondesire,
by submerging her in scalding bath water for about 30 second, reports
Daily Mail.
Adebayo who almost escaped to
Nigeria, was nabbed on Wednesday April 28th in Queens, New York, as she
was about boarding a flight that would have taken her out of the
country.
According to police authorities, the evil nurse was taking care of the baby on April 21 when she prepared her for a bath.
Though the doctors account said that the baby
was badly burnt, the nurse said she tested the water with her own hand
before placing Naomi in the tub but she noticed pieces of skin peeling
off Naomi's legs when she took her out.
The doctors also told police that Adebayo's account of how the baby was burned was inconsistent with the nature of her injuries.
Police
say the baby was submerged up to her waist in 130-degree water for 30
seconds while the girl little girl died from thermal injuries to 50 per
cent of her body, three days after doctors at Nassau University Medical
Center performed surgery on her.
Naomi's
heartbroken grandmother, Gardite Mondesire, was furious at the woman she
had hired to look after the little girl just one day before she was
scalded.
Mondesire said she
returned to her apartment on Memphis Avenue in the Rosedale section of
Queens at around 7.25 pm on Tuesday to find her tenant running around
the home picking up pieces of her granddaughter's skin.
When she got Adebayo on the phone, the nurse allegedly claimed she didn't know how Naomi got scalded.
The
nurse was detained at John F. Kennedy International Airport at around
7am while trying to board a flight to Nigeria via London.
Adebayo,
who according to her LinkedIn page has been a licensed nurse
practitioner for more than 16 years, could face up to 25 years to life
in convicted.
Naomi's mother, 32-year-old Cynthia
Mondesire, said she had had two miscarriages before giving birth to
Naomi - her only surviving child.
