Mum Dangles Baby Out of a Window Yelling ‘Wacko Jacko,’ Blames it on Michael Jackson

Photos have emerged of the horrifying moment an unidentified mum from Hull dangled her baby out of a window holding the child by the wrist, yelling ‘Wacko Jacko’ as a Michael Jackson song played on the radio. She has now blamed her actions on the infamous moment Michael Jackson did same to his then nine-month-old son son, Blanket, at a Berlin hotel balcony in front of photographers in 2002.

The baby’s dad who reported the incident after seeing photos on her mobile phone, said: “I saw what was on the picture and I was mortified, as you can imagine. I was sick, I felt ill. My kids are big, they are heavy, and I’m a big bloke, but it would take some strength for me to dangle my child out of a window – my child could have killed. I’m absolutely disgusted.”

The mum, who is in her 20s, later told police: “I’ve been stupid for dangling the child out of the window – I was having a Michael Jackson moment.”

She admitted exposing the child to danger when she appeared at Hull Magistrates Court, East Yorks., and was given a 16-week prison sentence, suspended for 12 months.

District Judge Frederick Rutherford who described the incident as a ‘moment of madness’, said: “It would seem that the cause for this extremely serious action came about as a result of a Michael Jackson song being played in the background, and that she copied his antics by dangling the child out of the window. She was shouting ‘Wacko Jacko’ as she was doing it.”

She required to undergo a 30-day rehabilitation programme under the supervision of the probation service.
