"infant had “a brain bleed and swelling of the brain,” as well as broken ribs and cuts to her liver, among other injuries."
Doesn't sound like "cracking a back" injury to me.

WTH??
Court papers detailed that on Monday, Johnson reportedly came to Phoenix PD for another interview, in which she demonstrated, on a doll, how she “cracked” her child’s back.
Phoenix mother intentionally ‘cracked’ infant’s back before she died, police say
she admitted to police she had zero “chiropractic training” and it was “probably reckless” to have done so. Ya think?!?
Why in heaven's name would someone think a 3 month old needed her back cracked and further what made Wanda think the method she described would accomplish that? I'm gonna say I disbelieve Ms. Johnson as to how this poor baby was injured. particularly since baby had two rib fracture that had already healed from some previous injury.

"Wanda demonstrated how she cracked her infant child's back on an infant baby doll," court documents read. "Wanda stood up and held the doll with both arms wrapped around the torso, squeezed to put some pressure on the spine, and made a downward squeezing and shaking motion with the doll.

The child was also found to have two rib fractures that had previously healed at some point during the child’s three-month life.
