Mom spanked other parents' kids with a belt, wooden spoon at sleepover, Florida cops say

A Florida woman faces child abuse charges after police say she spanked other parents' children at a sleepover she was hosting.

"One girl mentioned that she was hit in the knee with a wooden spoon, and another one said that she was hit with a shoe," Fred Jones of the Lake County Sheriff's Office told WESH. "And then there was another victim who was held down so that she would not leave."

The Lake County Sheriff's Office says 29-year-old Erin Pierce was hosting a sleepover when she started to spank children there with a belt, a shoe and spoon, according to The Villages-News. Around 20 children were at the sleepover, according to WFTV9.
