A 31-year-old babysitter in Indiana will not spend any time in prison for abusing and neglecting multiple children in her care, punching, slapping, and kicking the victims when they would act up. Hancock County Circuit Court Judge R. Scott Sirk on Thursday ordered Meleiah Fisher to serve three years on house arrest and an additional 2 1/2 years of probation, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show.

Fisher was initially arrested in 2022 and charged with 10 felonies, including multiple counts of neglect of a dependent resulting in bodily injury and battery resulting in bodily injury to a person under age 14. However, she reached a deal with prosecutors in which she agreed to plead guilty to five counts of neglect in exchange for the remaining charges being dismissed.
