The Knucklehead of the Day award

Today's winner is Eva Platt. She gets the award for the following.

ORANGE COUNTY - -An east Orange County mother was arrested after witnesses told authorities she threw her 2-month-old baby at a moving car, according to a sheriff's report released Friday.

Eva Platt, 31, was arguing with the child's father, Tony Licon-Diaz, at their Sherman Street home about 1:45 a.m. Thursday. Witnesses told deputies that Platt had been drinking when Licon-Diaz left the house and got in a car to leave. She tossed the baby after him, and the child struck the closed window and fell to the ground.

The baby was taken to Florida Hospital East with a skull fracture and bleeding in the brain.

Platt faces one count each of aggravated child abuse and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. She was being held on $100,000 bail.

The injuries reported above are liable to be either fatal, or cause brain damage. How can a mother do this to her own child? These kind of stories just make me sick. Eva Platt is today's Knucklehead of the Day.
