See what happens when you try to help people these days! A 42-year-old woman is under arrest after allegedly molesting a young boy she was supposed to be caring for till his Mother returned home. The family of the young boy thought they were helping Michelle Lester by giving her a place to stay and Tuesday afternoon the boy’s Mother asked Lester to look after her son when he got home from school. When the boy’s Mother returned home police say a friend told her that something may have happened to her child while she was away. She confronted Lester and we’re told Lester did make some admissions. Police tell Action News that the young victim’s Mother was so upset that she punched Lester. Investigators with Warren Police say Lester allegedly took off the boys pants and fondled him after he got home from school. Lester was arrested and has been charged with one count of Second Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct. She’s being held on a $10,000 bond. SMH. That broad deserved more than a punch to the face. Real talk! Source
This one here is especially special. Police in St. Petersburg, Fla., said they arrested a woman who told them text messages and photos indicating she was torturing her baby were a joke. Investigators said Donald Callaway, 21, called 911 Wednesday and said his ex-girlfriend, Brittany Lester, 20, was sending him pictures and messages implying she was torturing their 1-month-old son, the St. Petersburg Times reported Friday. Messages said Lester was going to “squeeze him until he’s gasping for air,” “urinate in a bottle and feed it to him” and “put him in the dresser and slam it,” investigators said. She also made several references to the baby dying, they said. The photos Lester sent Callaway showed her appearing to choke the child, placing a plastic bag over his head, placing him upside-down in a trash can and lying down with a cellphone charger in his mouth, police said. Officers said they found Lester in her motel room with the infant unharmed. Lester, who told police the pictures and text messages were meant as a joke, was arrested on a charge of aggravated child abuse. You big dummy!
