Mother said whipping of girl was not ‘torture’

`The mother accused of beating 4-year-old Diamond De’Zire Edmonds to death last year told police that she thought it was appropriate to repeatedly whip the girl. [..]

Prosecutors allege Edmonds and Wheeler whipped Diamond over a two-day period with a switch and a belt because she drank from other people’s cups.

Edmonds told police she also was upset that the child would go into the refrigerator in the middle of the night.’
