Baby Put In a Washing Machine

This is amazing. Putting a 1-year-old inside a washing machine isn't smart, but it's also not criminal, according to a New Jersey prosecutor. The Camden County prosecutor's office determined a babysitter and her acquaintance were not criminally liable for their decision at a Camden, New Jersey, laundry on May 11.
"This was not an intelligent choice to put the baby in the washing machine, but it was not a crime," said prosecutor's office spokesman Jason Laughlin. The incident was captured on the store's security camera and has since gone viral. It shows a man placing the child inside the machine and shutting the door, which apparently locked. The washer began its cycle with the baby inside. The two people then appeared to panic and tugged at the door, unable to open it until an employee unplugged the machine.
"He was scared," said employee Kong Enh. "I'm upset about what happened but I'm extremely gratified that the child is doing well." The baby suffered minor injuries, Laughlin said. "By looking at the video it is clear there was no attempt to harm the child," he said
Please nobody should ever do this to any child.
