N.J. babysitter charged with shaking toddler to death
CBS/AP
Bail was set Tuesday at $250,000 cash for 44-year-old Heale of Toms River.
Heale was watching the child in her home on Aug. 28 when he started having breathing problems. The toddler was flown that same day to a children's hospital in Philadelphia where he died three days later.
Doctors determined that the baby suffered severe brain, spine and retinal damage from a violent shaking.
The case will be heard in Monmouth County, because the infant's father and Heale's husband both work for the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office.
