A lawyer for the New Jersey woman accused of sexually assaulting a
2-year-old girl claimed the sick caught-on-video assault was “blown out
of proportion” as she tried to blame the tot for the alleged abuse,
according to a report. 

Victoria Cranmer sobbed during a hearing where a judge ruled she would
be held without bail for the “bizarre” and “troubling” May 6 incident
that took place when Cranmer was watching the child inside the girl’s
home while her mom was out, according to a report by the Asbury Park
Press. 

At the hearing, Cranmer’s own lawyer, Marissa Koerner, said the
14-second Snapchat video showed an “innocent moment,” and was not a
crime. 

“Anyone who has spent time caring for young children understands that
children often have little appreciation for personal space or privacy,”
Koerner said. 

“Young children routinely follow parents or caregivers into bathrooms,
touch things, ask questions, are curious and fail to recognize ordinary
social boundaries.” 

The clip allegedly depicted Cranmer sitting on the toilet and laughing
as the little girl touched Cranmer, prosecutor Lynn Juan told the judge. 

But Koerner said: “Children often engage in funny, spontaneous or
strange behavior that adults record because the moment is memorable or
humorous.” 

“The video has been blown out of proportion.”

Ocean County Judge Kenneth Palmer appeared unpersuaded by the defense
attorney’s arguments, saying: “The word to describe it is bizarre.” 

“I find it to be troubling there wasn’t any attempt to stop the child
from touching her,” Palmer said. 

The 25-year-old Cranmer was allegedly caught after a pal whose house she
had been staying at for three months took back the phone she bought for
Cranmer only to find the video on Cranmer’s Snapchat account. 

The friend was able to identify Cranmer in the video because of her
distinctive tattoo, a crudely drawn set of breasts, and other ink on her
legs, the court papers say.

November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look 
forward to America being great again.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that 
stupid people won't be offended.

Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama 
/ Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood 
queer liberal democrat donors.
