A central Kentucky woman has been arrested, charged with killing her child.
The Clark County Sheriff says 34-year-old Jessilyn Robinson killed four-year-old Faith Robinson back in May.
At the time, police say the girl's adoptive mother claimed the child fell in the bathtub but doctors say the injuries weren't consistent with a fall.
An autopsy showed the girl died of a subdural hematoma and that she had suffered retinal hemorrhaging. These findings are consistent with violent shaking according to the Clark County Sheriff.
Robinson now faces a charge of wanton murder. Her husband maintains custody of their two other children and Robinson is allowed supervised visitation.
Robinson will be arraigned in Clark County Court on Wednesday, October 1st at 1:00 p.m.

I too know this marvelous, loving and faithful family. They, mother, father and children have a bond that is rarely witnessed in so many other families. This family is selfless and kind, working hard to bring a close and loving family relationship to their own biological daughter and their two adopted children to create a "forever family" (as their oldest has said) that is a model of spirituality and high moral rectitude that other families could only hope to emulate. When Jess is exonerated, as I know she will be, I only hope that the press, the appropriate authorities and those of whom have already found her guilty will celebrate her innocence with the same level of energy with with they have besmirched her impeccable reputation as a woman, a mother and a valuable memeber of her community. I am behind this family, and will communicate such to them personally.

Well some of you say ol she wouldn't ever do this cause she is a good woman and some of you even said that she couldn't and wouldn't cause she went to church. Well folks let me say I'm not going to say she did or didn't do it, But people can put on a front. I mean all of you have seen husband and wifes go there on way and you say well they were so happy together well this is kinda like that we don't know what all was going on behind closed doors. I hope the truth comes out and even if she didn't do it but for some reason they say she did leave it to god he knows the truth and what really happened.
