COLUMBIA, Ill. (AP) - A southern Illinois teacher's aide has
pleaded not guilty to a charge alleging she tried to drown her
newborn in a toilet.
The girl born in November was revived. Authorities also are
investigating the death of an infant whose remains were found in
her home.
Twenty-three-year-old Elyse Mamino entered her
plea Monday to a charge of attempted first-degree murder.
Police say the set of remains found in Mamino's home in
Belleville had been there more than a year. No further details were
being released until the investigation is complete. No charges have
been filed in that case.
Mamino is jailed with bail set at $250,000.

wow , how is her bail so low 250,000 attempted first-degree murder and a death of an infant whose remains were in her home

Did she by any chance work in a public school? So when we gonna get those vouchers?

wow, this animal is in a classroom with someones children?  Hope they don’t make her mad or inconvenience her…Also makes you wonder if after she gets out of prison, if she will be able to go back into the classroom.  She does look sorta psycho, doesn’t she?

no this woman needs to have her head put in a toilet and put it on auto flush for about 5 years.

she looks a little pyscho.
