The 44-year-old mother who police say
drowned her 2-year-old daughter in a bathtub in a northeast Las Vegas apartment on Saturday has been booked into the Clark County Detention Center, jail records show.
Metropolitan Police Department booking logs and jail records identify her as Linette Warrichaiet, although she is identified as Linette Boedicker in court records. She faces one count of murder after police found her daughter fully clothed, floating face-up in a bathtub at the Sunset Terrace apartments, 2855 N. Walnut Road.
Dispatchers received a 911 call from the woman reporting her child was drowning about 3 p.m. Saturday, but she ignored dispatcher’s instructions to pull the child out of the water or perform CPR, Metro homicide Lt. Ray Spencer said Saturday evening. An officer arrived within five minutes of the call, but the woman didn’t open the door for almost two minutes, Spencer said. The officer then found the girl in the bathtub.
