    LA mother charged with drowning infant daughter

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — Prosecutors say a Los Angeles mother has been charged with drowning her year-old daughter and trying to drown her 5-year-old daughter.

    Deputy District Attorney Teresa Sullivan says 32-year-old Lorna Valle (VY'-ay) was charged with murder and attempted murder Friday and will be arraigned at a later date due to unspecified medical issues.

    The girls' father told police he found his wife trying to drown the girls in a tub when he returned home from a store Wednesday morning.

    Firefighters answering a 911 call found the girls unconscious and not breathing and administered CPR.

    The 1-year-old, Lindsay, died.

    The 5-year-old, Marian, remains in critical condition in a coma at Children's Hospital Los Angeles.

    Valle is being held on $1.5 million bail.

    If convicted, she faces 50 years to life in prison.

      Tom Cruise gave his expert opinion on postpartum because, u know, he read a book and that made him an expert on the subject, right. He sounded like an idiot because he was followed scientology's reasoning, To bad so many are just like him.

      I am just curious as to what goes on in the minds of theese parents that murder their kids?Do they not feel them fighting for their lives?How can they sit and watch their children struggling desperate for air?Do they feel any emotion as they do this?

        They like the s@x part of marriage, but that is all they know, everything else is not a part of their agenda where marriage is concerned.....Off course, this comment is for those who think marriage is a cake walk and love is forever without hassles.

        No, they have no feelings. Not real ones. If they did, they'd not do it. (Some slobbering crybaby is going to say "we must feel for them and pity them because they are mentally ill" in five...four...three...two...)

        you don't get off on insanity. you go to a psychiatric prison instead of prison prison. TV isn't real
      • Darth Sabreth 3 mths ago
        thank you josie, i forgot her name i just remembered how horrible it was!
        And to J Mb what i meant was if it wasnt for the insanity thing she prolly would have gotten the death penalty for that terrible crime, insane people cant get the death penalty from what i understand.

    • CastleBravo15MegaTon  •  Clinton, Iowa  •  3 mths ago
      50yrs, where is the justice in that. She should go to the gas chamber, get a taste of what that little girl went through as the cyanide pellets drop in the acid, and she hears the hiss as she is having the life suffocated out of her. If this had been a guy who did this, he'd be looking at death row for sure.
    • Nancy  •  Elmhurst, Illinois  •  2 mths ago
      She needs a good #$%$ whipping out behind the barn.
