Seal Beach mom charged in death of 22-month-old daughter
A Seal Beach mother of four was charged Monday in the death of her 22-month-old daughter and for allegedly fracturing the skull of the dead child's male twin, authorities said.
Linda Wilborn, 31, was charged with one felony count of assault on a child with force likely to produce great bodily injury resulting in death and three felony counts of child abuse, the Orange County district attorney's office said. She was arrested Monday by the Seal Beach Police Department and was being held in lieu of $1-million bail.
Wilborn allegedly ruptured the heart of the child who died, the district attorney's office said. The child died after being taken to the hospital.
The district attorney said Wilborn subjected her twins to physical abuse between Oct. 17 and Dec. 17, 2009.
Her three other children have been placed in protective custody, prosecutors said.
Wilborn is expected to be arraigned Wednesday at the Santa Ana courthouse. If convicted, she faces up to 25 years to life in state prison, according to the district attorney.
This is fucked up...and I live near Seal Beach.
