British woman jailed after 2year old drowned while she was browsing

 A British woman has been jailed for 5 years after her son drowned while she was busy browsing. 31 year old Claire Barnett pleaded guilty to four charges of child neglect. The prosecutors had told the court that Barnett was on Facebook instead of supervising her 2-year-old son, Joshua, while he was in the back garden.

  Prosecutors also told the court that Barnett was warned by relatives and social services to cover the pond because it was unsafe for her children.

Detectives found that at the time of the boy’s drowning, Barnett uploaded two photos to Facebook and talked to her boyfriend on the phone.

She later found the child drowned in the pond and attempted to resuscitate him but he passed away at the hospital.

Judge Richardson called Barnett’s parenting ‘lamentably appalling’ after hearing that she was also warned by social services in 2013 after two of her unsupervised children were nearly hit by a car while playing on a busy road.
