Police were called to the Loma Linda University Medical Center on Sept. 4, 2021, for an 8-month-old boy who had suffered a skull fracture, a sheriff's news release said.
The baby boy attended Kiddie Academy and had been under the care of both Maldonado and Ferra, investigators said.
Both suspects were arrested for allegedly conspiring to conceal the baby's injuries and neglect of his well-being.
