BARABOO, Wis. (AP) — Bail is set at $250,000 for a Reedsburg woman accused in the death of a 4-month-old girl.
Authorities say 24-year-old Jeanette Janusiak was babysitting Payten Rain Shearer on Thursday when the child became unresponsive. Investigators say Janusiak told them she dropped the baby. A doctor who examined the infant told police Janusiak’s explanation was inconsistent with the severity of the baby’s injuries.
The Baraboo News Republic says the Sauk County district attorney has charged Janusiak with first-degree intentional homicide. She appeared in court Monday and is being held in the county jail.
