A daycare owner in Minneapolis was only sentenced to 10 years of probation after trying to kill a toddler in her home by hanging him with a noose.
Nataliia Karia, 43, received her hearing in Hennepin County court after pleading guilty to attempted murder and third-degree assault earlier. She also pleaded guilty to criminal vehicular operation for hitting a pedestrian, a bicyclist, and another driver as she fled from her home in a minivan in November 2016.
Prosecutor Christina Warren pushed for prison time but was unsuccessful. Warren raised doubts that Karia could be properly supervised outside of prison and receive the care she needs to restore her mental health.
In a court filing, Warren wrote that instead of being the person most able and willing to protect the boy from harm, Karia “left him hanging by a noose around his neck in her basement.”
