I know many members of WS have small children. (myself included). Just saw this on the 10 pm news. I just checked my sons crib and his is one of the affected cribs and I have the part in question installed INCORRECTLY! (no wonder it never worked right!) I just pulled him out of it and stuck him in my bed with daddy.
So please if you have any of these brands of cribs CHECK them!
1 million Simplicity, Graco baby cribs recalled after 3 children die from entrapment
September 21, 2007 (WASHINGTON) - About 1 million Simplicity and Graco cribs are being recalled after three children became entrapped in their cribs and died of suffocation, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said Friday.
Two infants, a 6-month-old and a 9-month-old, died in the recalled cribs, which were sold through May 2007. A 1-year-old child died in a newer model of the cribs, which has not been recalled but is being investigated by the safety agency, CPSC officials said.
Commission spokesman Ed Kang would not comment on when or where the children died. Simplicity spokesman Joe Householder said the company will not release further details about the deaths out of respect for the families.
