Tiffany Fraser, 26, of 1 Tallman Place, Airmont, the mother of twin sons, pleaded not guilty to second-degree assault, a felony, in Village Court. She previously had been charged with a misdemeanor in the case.
Fraser, a single mother, is accused of putting her son in the oven in July because he had lost a cell phone, Weidel said.
"He was being punished," Weidel said.
The child's burns - including to his arm, hand, nose and left leg - were noticed by Lherisson, who questioned the boy at the day care facility, police and the state Office of Children and Family Services said.
The child's day care provider also was charged because, police and state officials said, she learned about the abuse from the boy and mother but never reported it to authorities.
The day care provider, Joelle M. Lherisson, 37, of 10 Country Club Lane, was charged with a misdemeanor count of failure to report child abuse. She has pleaded not guilty. Her license to operate a day care facility at her house has been revoked by the state.
