A Florida woman was arrested over the weekend after she allegedly sent a video and an image of her beating and abusing an infant to her ex-boyfriend, the father of the little girl.
The ex-boyfriend flagged down a North Miami Police officer early Saturday evening and showed what he’d received, WPLG reported. According to the arrest report, the video showed Reyanna Icilma Thomas, 22, striking the baby while “yelling and cursing” at her.
Then she “forcefully pushed” the “frightened and afraid” baby and called her a “dumba** b****,” the report says.
The report says that Thomas texted a photo to the little girl’s father showing her on a bed with a blanket covering her nose and mouth.” A text message said, “I’m stuck with this thing until she dies. “It makes me so sick that she doesn’t have a different father and I can’t love her because she has a part of you. I’m gonna enjoy my 20s. Left ur sperm in the house with a cat.”
Police rushed to the apartment, but Thomas refused to answer the door. Officers got a handyman to open the door and ordered Thomas to step outside. She was taken into custody when she did so.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue crews checked out the baby, who had no visible injuries, police said. Thomas reportedly confessed to making the video and sending the texts, but the notes about the confession were redacted from the report.
She was charged with child abuse causing no great bodily harm and is being held without bond until a hearing is held, according to jail records.
