April 3, 2012

The mother told the terrible time she lived with her 21 month old son who fell in the washer and died in her arms. 

Little Ollie Hebb was helping his mother Tiffany in the laundry, the child had climbed on the tray and put the clothes inside the top-loading washing machine.

The mother sat down to read a magazine, but did not realize that Ollie was missing, “I looked everywhere, calling him by name, and could not find him.”

“Then I leaned against the washer and felt like I hit a body inside. When I saw inside his little body it was the worst day of my life. I took him out and he died in my arms. “

According to Michael Rouches, police spokesman in Hillsboro, Oregon:”Detectives do not believe that it was an intentional crime or that someone put the baby in the washing machine.”

“We need to talk with the prosecutor, just to ensure what is the degree of negligence.”

He further clarified that “the detectives did not handle other cases where children drown in similar circumstances.”
