Child Found In Street With Noose Around Neck

[Sequoia]

A Cincinnati couple was arrested Wednesday after their 3-year-old daughter was found alone with a rope around her neck, police said.

A social worker saw the girl on the side of a road in Sedamsville, Ohio, while on her way to another home and called police.

Police said they responded and waited more than an hour to see if the girl's parents would come out of their home to check on her. When they didn't, police went inside and arrested them.

Rose Seibert and Kermit Martin are facing charges of child endangering. It was not clear how the rope got around the girl's neck.

3. poor kid

Back in the day, when I was a therapy tech at the State School, we had a young boy who had tried to hang himself after watching a TV western. He was virtually a vegetable. The parents are lucky she was not run over or accidentally hung. They are LUCKY she went to foster care.
