[P]rosecutors say... that Ms. Vaughn put her two boys in the bath on Sunday night and wandered off to another room to play CD's. Her current companion, Gary Young, poked his head in after 15 or 20 minutes and, though he did not see Dahquay, assumed the boy had tucked himself behind the shower curtain and then went out for diapers and some beer.
Twenty minutes later, give or take a few, Ms. Vaughn checked on the boys herself.
The boys were 3 years old and 16 months old. The younger child, Dahquay, drowned.
I SHOULD ADD: The linked article, which is quite long, is an effort to portray the mother in a sympathetic light.

I'm sure when the WaPo gets around to "apportioning blame," their finger will point at "society," meaning "racism." For instance, her parents are portrayed as somewhat normal except for the father's drinking and perhaps mental illness, yet the mother died of AIDS! How did this terrible family history come to be?
If anything, society is to blame for destroying the black family through the last three decades of soul destroying welfare dependency.
It sounds like Tracy is going to have some problems in getting along with her cellmates.
The government can't be in everyone's home, checking to make sure they're good parents. But they KNEW this woman was a problem and gave the kids back. Disgusting.
Natural selection. Whew.
