Police say a mother of five was watching American Idol while her 3-year-old girl nearly drowned in a bathtub at a Northeastside home last week.
<!-- PHOTO & FACTBOX --> <!-- ARTICLE SIDEBAR --> <table align="left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="210"> <tbody><tr> <td colspan="2" height="5"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <!--MAIN PHOTO--> <!--MAIN FACTS BOX--> </td> <td width="10"> </td> </tr> </tbody></table> <!-- REMAINING TEXT --> Sheila R. Brooks, 25, has not been charged in connection with the near drowning of Sirius Brooks at a home in the 9300 block of East 42nd Street at shortly after 8:30 p.m. Thursday.
Sirius was in critical condition Friday at Methodist Hospital. Sirius remained at Methodist this morning, but hospital spokesman Gene Ford said he is not releasing any information at the family?s request.
Brooks left Sirius and her 1-year-old sister Sereena in the tub with about 9 inches of water and went into another room to get clothes, according to a police report made public this morning.
Brooks was in her bedroom when her oldest daughters, Daesheana Twyman, 7, and Dasianaye Twyman, 5, entered the room, police said.
"Daesheana stated that they were in her mother's bedroom watching American Idol on TV for several minutes and her mother suddenly stated that she forgot and left the two youngest children in the tub," Officer Gustavia Dodson wrote in the report.
Brooks told Daesheana to take the children out of the tub, police said. Daesheana found Sirius submerged and called for her mother.
Brooks performed CPR while her brother, Darnell Wilson, 38, called 911, police said.
Police found about an ounce of marijuana, five burnt marijuana cigarettes and a scale in the house, according to the report.
Daesheana, Dasianaye, Sereena and a 4-year-old girl not named in the report were placed in protective custody, police said.

Re: Police: Mom watched 'Idol' while tot nearly drowned

so let me get this straight

the woman is 25.........has FOUR KIDS - 7, 5, 3 and 1 meaning this Mother of the Year candidate started popping out kids at 18 and from the sound of things 2 diff fathers - 2 for each

and how much you wanna bet NEITHER of the fathers is anywhere around these days and odds are left not too long after the last kid they had with her was born. and how much you wanna bet NEITHER father is paying child support because why should they because most black fathers (and i think we all know all here are black) rarely pay child support for their out of wedlock kids

and how much you wanna guess Shiela will have AT LEAST 2-3 more kids with at least 2 more guys and then complain when something bad happens and how no one is there to help here. and how much you wanna guess Ms Brooks weighs WELL OVER 200 pounds - and probably closer to 300 - or more - and no way she can work with kids those ages

i hate to say it - but pretty soon someone has to teach her about borth control - or in her case - read the instructions to her since odds are darn good she is darn near illiterate or too stupid or lazy to know what to do

and the even sadder part is women like her are more common than should be - especially among her "sisters"

'bout time someone teaches her responsibility - and the concept of birth control and not opening your legs to the first guy who wants to put something inside you

in all fairness, it was a really good episode that night.:rolleyes:


Stuff like this just kills me....you can believe we'll find out she gets food stamps, public housing, assistance, free medical, all the stuff...but there was enough money around to have marijuana in the house...

There is no need for one for each kid, because in that one room section 8 welfo apt second hand smoke is dense. An official kids smoke free zone. The five were to be combined for one gigantic fatty for the elimination show. Or maybe the next show after idol. Hint: Don't name your kids while wasted listening to the radio. It don't work.




Good stuff.


Best Wishes...I guess Paula is her idol...OF :cheers

Re: Police: Mom watched 'Idol' while tot nearly drowned

It starts IN SCHOOL.

Kids don't learn responsibility, morals, ethics, respect, loyalty, dignity, honor, etc. from home, and they don't learn it in school. Where do you expect them to learn to become decent productive human beings?

They will never get it at home, but THEY CAN GET IT IN SCHOOL.

We need to create a program where kids get half an hour every day. Something different Monday through Friday.

They aren't learning in school anyway.

One hour a day, every other day would be great. You could do PE on the other days. Or half hour of each every day.

Let them get something good out of their government education!

Sure, it wouldn't show any immediate effects, but 10 years from now I guarantee you it would make a difference in several aspects of society--the crime rate being one of them.

No, it starts in the home. Only thing these kids will learn in school is how to score drugs and how to roll fatties. Maybe some rap and cool handshakes. No kid can do anything at school without any support from home.



This is how we do it...:cocktail
