A
woman shocked friends after she posted a photo of a little boy with
Down's syndrome inside a washing machine on Facebook. Courtney
Stewart, 21, (pictured below) shared the photo saying the 2 year old
boy had climbed into the machine by himself because he has a 'washing
obsession', and said she was sharing the photo 'as a laugh'. The child
was in her care when the photo was taken.
Her
neigbours in Erskine, Renfrewshire, UK, didn't think the photo was
funny and reported her to police. The police visited her but she was
not arrested.
She
told police that the door to the washing machine had not been closed on
the boy, and the machine was unplugged as she was waiting for a new
one to be delivered.
Speaking
of the decision taken by someone who had seen the picture on Facebook
to report it to police, she said: 'I don’t know who reported it. I
don’t really know why they would do that. I think it’s absolutely
ridiculous.'
Ms
Stewart claimed she was also assaulted on her doorstep by a stranger
who had seen the picture. She has since removed the photo.
