Sheena RobinsonA Chattanooga woman in custody almost one month after a child was taken to a local hospital with extensive bruising on his body.
The boy’s mother told police he had been staying with 36-year-old Sheena Robinson from July 15-18.
She said Robinson had called her on July 17 and told her a dresser had fallen on the child but that he was OK and not injured, according to Hamilton County court records.
When the mother picked her son up after work on July 18 around 2:30 a.m., she noticed he was “walking funny,” the records state. She gave him a bath once they got home and noticed swelling and irritation to his genitalia and bruises on his thighs, forearms, neck and chest.
That’s when she took the boy, whose age was not listed in the records, to the hospital where Chattanooga police were called.
