A 4-year-old girl in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, has died after her grandmother forced her to drink whiskey, police say.
The girl's blood alcohol content was 0.680%, a"lethal dosage," according to the arrest warrant. A level of .25% can cause alcohol poisoning, and anything higher than .40% can lead to a coma or death, according to a University of Notre Dame chart.Roxanne Record, 53, and the girl's mother, Kadjah Record, 28, were booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison for first-degree murder, according to inmate records. It is unclear whether either woman has an attorney.
The grandmother then forced the girl"to consume the remainder of the bottle which was possibly over half full while on her knees in the hallway," the warrants said. The mother was present and didn't try to intervene, according to police, according to police. Kadjah Record didn't seek medical help for her daughter until the girl stopped breathing, according to the warrants. First responders tried to perform lifesaving measures but were not successful.
