A family is mourning the death of their two year old daughter who died shortly after being thrown to the ground by her foster mother. The young girl was taken from her parents because they admittedly smoked marijuana while their daughter was asleep. The Texas Family Protective Services took the child in January and placed her in the care of a woman named Sherill Small who was approved to be a foster parent by the agency, Texas Mentor. According to KXAN News, Texas Mentor has 15 deficiencies including leaving children unattended for extended periods of time. The family plans to sue the Texas CPS as well as Texas Mentor. Joshua Hill, the father of the child, told reporters, “We want to make sure, if nothing else, this doesn’t happen to anybody else’s kid. Nobody deserves this at all.”
