A 2-year-old girl remains on life support three weeks after she was beaten by her mother for soiling herself.
Bond for the mother, 20-year-old Keisha A. Jackson, was set at $100,000 Friday. She is charged with cruelty toward a child and aggravated battery on a child, among other charges.
The baby girl was transferred to Broward General Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale on Feb. 26 after being taken to North Broward Medical Center in Deerfield Beach by the mother's live-in boyfriend. The child was shaken, beaten with a belt and had bite marks on her chest, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office. She is unable to breathe on her own.
