CHILD JUMPED FROM SECOND FLOOR BUILDING TO AVOID BEATING FROM LEGAL GUARDIAN

Rasheena Perry faces child endangerment charges after she admitted to beating two children in her care and then left her own two-month-old child alone in an apartment in Des Moines, Iowa.

Rasheena Perry, 30, is charged with 3 counts of child endangerment – two of which caused bodily injury.

The incident happened at a southside apartment building in July 2019. Rasheena allegedly attacked two girls under the age of fourteen, who she is a guardian for, while they were in a bathtub.

A complaint accuses her of throwing objects at the kids and hitting them. Rasheena also choked one of the victims with her hands and wrapped a shower curtain around the other child’s head.

One of the girls jumped off a second-story balcony to get away.

Rasheena cut her hand in the attack and smeared blood around the apartment building, then ran outside naked, leaving her two-month-old daughter alone.
