A West Virginia woman is being charged with five felony counts of abuse and maliciousness after she used a cigarette to burn the word "WIMP" into her 6 year-old daughter's neck.
According to authorities, school officials noticed the burns on the little girl's neck and asked her where they had come from. The girl explained she had tripped and fallen, which angered her 43 year-old mother. Her mother then used a cigarette to burn the word "WIMP" into the back of the girl's neck.
The child is in foster care and the woman is being held on a $50,000 bond.
