Toddler Beaten to Death by Two Boys After Mum Left Kids Home Alone to Visit Casino
18th April 2025
Pretty sad when we need to depend on a British tabloid to inform us of what’s going on in the U.S.
A mum has been jailed after her young daughter was beaten to death when she left eight children home alone to go gambling.
Three-year-old Blessing Buckles and seven other children, aged between 11 months and 12 years, were left at a home in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on February 12 last year. Mum Dineshia Yates and her friend Terica Scott were visiting a casino, unaware of the violence taking place.
Blessing is said to have been attacked by two boys: Scott’s 10-year-old son and 12-year-old nephew. She suffered a bleed to the brain and tragically died just two days later.
