A woman who was recently arrested in connection to a child abuse case in Kewaunee County has now officially been charged.
35-year-old Dawn Jimenez is now facing charges of 1st Degree Reckless Injury, Aggravated Battery Intending Great Bodily Harm, Causing Mental Harm to a Child, Chronic Neglect of a Child Causing Great Bodily Harm, and two counts of Repeated Acts of Physical Abuse of a Child Causing Great Bodily Harm each as a party to the crime.
Details of the abuse have not been released, but a doctor who treated the child reported that they “flatlined” while being treated, and likely will not grow to be a functioning adult if they even survive.
The child has been put on a ventilator while being treated at Children’s Hospital in Milwaukee.
