    Disabled girl abandoned overnight


    A babysitter has admitted abandoning a disabled six-year-old outside overnight in temperatures just above freezing, wearing only socks and a dressing gown.The High Court in Glasgow heard the girl, who is deaf and blind, suffered hypothermia and almost died.

    Kate Harper, 26, strapped the youngster into her pram and went to sleep in a nearby house after a fireworks party in Kingspark, Glasgow, last November.

    She will return to court for sentencing next month.


    The court heard that the girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was discovered the following morning by a school bus driver.This article is from the BBC News website. ? British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
