Woman Faces Life in Prison for Gluing Her Daughter’s Hands to a Wall

Elizabeth Escalona was pissed at her daughter over potty training. She handled it in part by gluing her daughter’s hands to the wall. What an asshole. Really. There’s no other way to put it. She supposedly kicked her daughter in the stomach a few times and slapped her around with various objects first. I fail to see any logic in how gluing a baby’s hands to the wall is gonna get them to go to the John. It maybe just me, but this chick is a Looney Tune. She’s up for sentencing and could face life in prison for injury to a child. She looks young enough that I don’t want to see her sit in jail forever. Maybe she can still learn some sense or something.

DALLAS – A Texas woman who admitted to beating her 2-year-old daughter and gluing her hands to a wall is to be sentenced.

Elizabeth Escalona pleaded guilty July 12 to injury to a child. The young mother is scheduled to be sentenced Monday and faces up to life in prison.

Her daughter was in a coma for two days after the Sept. 7, 2011, incident. The girl and her siblings have since been taken into state custody. Police records show the toddler’s siblings told investigators their mother kicked the girl in the stomach repeatedly and hit her with various objects before gluing her hands to the wall. She was in a hospital for a week.

Dallas police say Escalona was mad about potty training problems. (10news)
