Trial Begins For Day Care Owner Facing Assault Charges Against 12 Children
Story out of New Brunswick:
The opening day of a former New Brunswick daycare owner's assault trial heard that Celine Lang allegedly tied a child to a chair with shoelaces, pushed the same child for jumping on a mattress and threw a glass of water in the face of another child to "calm him down."
Lang, 58, faces a total of 14 charges, including charges of assault against 12 children in her daycare.
She is also charged with assault and assault with a weapon — a flower pot — against an employee at Couvée de la Vallée daycare in Memramcook, N.B.
The Francophone South School District then opened its own investigation into the case, which led to the eventual closure of the daycare.
Charline Morrison and Marie-Claude Dussault of the school district testified that Lang denied accusations against her but did admit to throwing a glass of water in a child's face to "calm him down," allegedly describing the child as spoiled.
Officials with the school district said 15 of the children were pulled out of the daycare by their parents the same day. Cont.
