A tragic incident at a daycare in Alabama has brought to light the importance of ensuring the safety and well-being of children in childcare settings. The owner of the daycare, Angelene Chamblee, is facing multiple charges in connection with the death of 4-month-old Autumn Wells, who tragically passed away after being left on a Boppy pillow for an extended period of time.
Chamblee has been charged with manslaughter, possession of forged instruments, forgery, and operating a daycare without a license. The incident occurred on March 9, 2022, when Autumn was found unresponsive after being left face down on the pillow during naptime. Despite being rushed to the hospital, she was pronounced deceased, leaving her mother, Taylor Wells, devastated.
The subsequent investigation revealed several deficiencies at the daycare, leading to its closure and the suspension of Chamblee’s license. A total of five individuals, including Chamblee, were charged in connection with Autumn’s death. Payton Gann, who placed Autumn on the pillow, was found guilty of manslaughter, while others pleaded guilty to various charges related to the incident.
