pissed at those accusing provider says....
FACTS?? Facts according to whom? As far as anyone knows, the only FACTS are that SOMEONE mistreated this child and the daycare provider CALLED FOR HELP. We don't know exactly what happened, when it happened, or why it happened.

Sometimes a child can be shook and the effects are not there until the next morning ...so yea check out the parents...if she is innocent than lets applaude her for getting the child help...

The Salina Journal reported the facts, FACTS. They didnt guess as to what happened, they gathered the information available and presented it, just because you dont like it that doesnt make it slander.

Thank God the child is Okay. Let's remember that all accused are presumed innocent in this country. The newspaper article and this page are not showing bias one way or another. Let's let justice run it's course here.

I hope the newspaper prints a retraction as prominent as this sensationalist aricle. What a lack of integrity by the Salina Journal.

I believe that this daycare provider had nothing to do with this case. Tiffany is a great person with 2 children and 1 one the way. She is an excellent mother,wife and friend. Tiffany is a relative of mine and there is NO way that she is responsible for this child's condition. I hope that when this is all said and done and she is proven INNOCENT, that she looks into filing charges for slander, and that the state looks into the parents of this child and leave the daycare providers alone. Love you Tiffany, Hang in there.

Yeah blame it on the child care provider! Have you ever stopped to question the parents when sometimes a child is in better care with the childcare provider than they are with the parents. There's lots of bad daycare and there are lots of bad parents. It's a two way street. Maybe this child was already injured before he came to daycare! There are two side to every story. This child care provider is innocent until proven guilty. So don't point your fingers yet until you know the truth!

Child care provider arrested on child abuse charge


A Salina child care provider whose license was suspended by the state last week was arrested Monday in connection with injuries suffered by an 8-month-old boy.

Tiffany L. Axelson, 24, 107 Hays Court, made her first appearance Monday in Saline County District Court on charges of child abuse and aggravated battery.

Deputy Police Chief Carson Mansfield said Axelson called emergency crews about 4 p.m. April 28 to report that a boy in her care was unresponsive, but breathing. The child is not Axelson’s, he said.

The boy was taken by ambulance to Salina Regional Health Center, then flown to Wesley Medical Center in Wichita. He since has been released.

Mansfield said the boy suffered head injuries that were consistent with being shaken.
