Gianna Cochran was charged with felonies involving sexual and physical abuse of children between the ages of 8 months and 2-years-old, 10TV's Kevin Landers reported. Their suspicions of alleged abuse were verified months later, when police knocked on their door with a video," Landers reported.
"On the video camera it shows her that day strangling her, like pushing down on her chest," the parent said. "I was just shocked. I couldn't believe what I was seeing it just broke my heart."
Cochran's live-in boyfriend was suspicious about his own daughter and said he bought a "nanny camera" and caught the crimes on tape, Landers reported.
