A day care worker in Georgia was arrested earlier this week following a report of alleged child abuse. Bainbridge police say Yvette Thurston, 54, was taken into custody Monday and faces charges of first-degree aggravated battery and three counts of first-degree child abuse. Thurston’s bond was set at $44,000 for all four charges, according to Chief Magistrate Ann Marie Emmons. Jail records show that Thurston has since bonded out of the Decatur County Jail. Thurston was identified as an employee at Little Blessings Child Care, where the reported incident allegedly took place.
