Jermane Johnson, Jr., an 18-month-old toddler was dragged by a 5-year-old to a bathtub and drowned to death. The 16-year-old girl who was supposed to be looking after the toodler fell asleep. When social workers asked the 5-year-old girl why she drowned the toodler, she told them that she didn’t like the toddler because he “made too much noise” and “cried too much.”

Reuters Reports:

A 5-year-old girl could face murder charges in the recent drowning of a toddler in a bathtub, police said on Thursday.

Kansas City police are waiting for a medical examiner’s report on how Jermane Johnson Jr., died, but have investigated the death as a homicide, spokesman Darin Snapp said Thursday.

“I’ve been in law enforcement for 20 years and it’s the youngest suspect I can remember,” Snapp said. “It’s extremely rare.”

Johnson, 18 months old, was in a Kansas City house on June 3rd with other children, but the 16-year-old girl who was supposed to be looking after them fell asleep, Snapp said.

One of the most saddest and tragic stories we’ve ever heard. Do you think a 5 year old should face murder charges?
