MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A woman on trial for a violent night that claimed the life of her 15-month-old daughter has been found not guilty by reason of insanity.
Officials said 38-year-old Precious Bland drowned the baby, claiming she was trying to baptize everyone in the house, on Aug. 23, 2021.
Bland’s 38-year-old husband and 16-year-old daughter were stabbed in the incident and survived.
Authorities discovered the victims at a home located on Northwest 99th Street near 30th Avenue, where they also found Bland suffering from stab wounds determined to be self-inflicted.
Four other children, all under the age of 11, were in the home at the time of the attack, but they were not harmed.
