A woman from Florida is facing charges after authorities say she sat on a little girl to punish her, and the girl ended up dying.
Veronica Posey weighs 320 pounds.
According to authorities, Posey sat on her little cousin after the girl's mother called her to help discipline the child.
After the girl was allegedly hit with a ruler and metal pipe, Posey sat on her.
By the time Posey got up, the girl wasn't breathing.
She died about an hour later.
Two other people are facing charges.
