Zook reportedly admitted to leaving the boy and three other children, ages 4, 5 and 6, unsupervised in the barn for at least an hour. Zook said she regularly leaves the children alone and "does not intend to change as a result of this incident," Trooper Linda Gerow wrote in a criminal compliant.

Liquid acid and powdered soap were also found in the barn, in addition the pipe cleaner used to clean the milk lines of the dairy farm.

Zook faces a misdemeanor count for child endangerment. Her next court date has not been scheduled at the time of this post.
