Adraianna Bradley, 20, of Lakeland, is under arrest for the death of an 8-month-old boy she was babysitting, and the story is getting play on multiple Polk and Tampa Bay media websites. Here are links to the stories.
WFLA’s Holly Bounds, in the video report above, quoted the child’s mother — she was stunned her best friend is accused — and the fiancee of the arrested woman — who said there’s no way she did it. She also got Sheriff Grady Judd on film, saying Bradley cried not once during more than two hours of interrogation.
As of 10:30 tonight, most of the other online stories were early reports based on news releases.
