Mayra said she had slipped and landed with her hand on the child’s head. The child’s mother, 31-year-old Jamie Lee Rosales, was indicted on a charge of injury to a child for violating a Child Protective Services safety plan directing her not to leave her children alone with Mayra.
Mayra, of La Joya, has been bedridden by her obesity. Officials were forced to arraign her at home because they had no means of bringing her to a judge.
