A YOUNG girl bit and kicked her mom to allegedly stop her from strangling her baby sister.
The nine-year-old girl and her 12-year-old brother reportedly heard their mom tell someone on the phone that she “just killed a six-month-old baby,” the children testified.
According to an arrest report, obtained by NBC Miami, the siblings’ mom came into their bedroom with their baby sister, locked the door behind her and shut off the lights.
But once they heard what they accused their mom to say, the girl “immediately gets up and pulls the defendant’s hair, bites her arms and kicked her, doing everything she can to save [the baby’s] life,” the report stated.
As the girl attacked her mom, 31-year-old Ailenys Carmenate, her brother opened the bedroom door – allowing their step dad, Randy Montano, to enter the room.
He was reportedly in the shower when his girlfriend locked her three kids in the bedroom.
When he rushed into the bedroom, he realized Carmenate had her hands firmly around the baby’s throat, the report states.
Montano, the infant’s biological father, attempted to get Carmenate off the baby.
Carmenate then fell to the ground with the child – leaving the six-month-old unconscious.
Local news WPLJ reported that when Carmenate tried to strangle her son, he escaped – and she allegedly pulled her daughter’s hair, dragged her and attempted to strangle her.
The baby was found with red strangulation marks on her neck and suffering a head injury.
The nine-year-old suffered from neck trauma and was also found with marks on her neck.
She told police: “She had never experienced a pain like that in her life” and she “thought she was going to die,” Miami Herald reported.
Carmenate remained at Miami-Dade’s Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on Monday.
Carmenate was arrested Saturday, appeared in front of Circuit Judge Mindy S. Glazer on Monday, and was accused of attempting to murder her three kids in her Hialeah, Florida, apartment.
She faces kidnapping, child abuse, and attempted murder charges.
