Details are emerging in the death of a 3-month-old boy who died while at a Farmington in-home daycare last week. The provider has admitted that the infant was sleeping on a bed and not in crib, but her lawyer says negligence should not be assumed.

Providers are only required nine hours of annual training, according to the Star Tribune. Minnesota is also one of the 26 states that doesn't require in-home providers to have a high school degree. The Department of Human Services told the newspaper the state is reviewing requirements in light of a recent increase of daycare deaths.

An Oakdale daycare provider is facing child endangerment and child neglect charges, stemming from an alleged incident after social workers showed up unannounced at her in-home daycare in February. According to a criminal complaint, Jennifer Lynn Goldetsky, 43 rushed three children out the back door of her daycare and locked them in a shed -- without shoes or jackets -- because she had too many children in her care.

The judge issued a restraining order preventing the union election Dayton had authorized last month. Opponents argued Dayton didn't have the power to order an election.

A North Chisago Lakes Township woman was acquitted Thursday night in the death of 8-month-old child at her unlicensed home day care last year. Salli D. Schultz, 43, was found not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of Brooke Kowarsch, of Lindstrom. Defense attorney Earl Gray said Friday that authorities rushed to judgment in filing homicide charges.
