Mother charged after son, 6, beats newborn sister to death

A 62-year-old Florida woman is charged with aggravated manslaughter after authorities said her 6-year-old son beat his newborn sister to death while the children and their 3-year-old brother were left alone in the family's minivan. During a news conference Thursday, Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gulatieri said the baby -- 13-day-old Kathleen Bridget Steele -- was pronounced dead Monday afternoon at St. Petersburg General Hospital. But investigators believe she died earlier, inside the van where her mother, Kathleen Steele, had left the children for 38 minutes while she visited a cellphone repair shop. "It was one of the worst things I've ever seen," the sheriff said.
