WTF! BABYSITTER LET'S A BABY DROWN IN A BUCKET AFTER SHE CHUGGED NYQUIL!

A Queens babysitter wrecklessly chugged Nyquil when she ran out of Dayquil in the hours before the 11-month-old boy she was watching drowned in a bucket of water, a prosecutor charged Tuesday.

"She ran out of Dayquil and used Nyquil knowing from previously using it that she would get drowsy," Assistant Queens District Attorney Leigh Bishop told jurors as the trial of Krystal Khan got underway.

Khan, who wiped tears away at the defense table as Bishop spoke, was out cold when 11-month-old James Farrior tumbled head first into the death bucket, where a yellow rubber ducky was also found

The 29-year-old woman faces up to four years in prison on a reckless assault charge for the June 15, 2009 tragedy.

Khan's lawyer, Eugene Guarino, told jurors his client shouldn't be punished for an accident.

"This was a tragic, tragic accident which never should have occurred but it has," Guarino told jurors. "The events of June 15, 2009 were an accident. They were not criminal."

Khan advertised on craigslist and charged parents $25 a day to care for kids.

"I charge so little because the competition is so high," Khan wrote in a statement given to cops.

Bishop said Khan left the child unattended for an hour while she slept and showed little emotion when cops arrived to find the child lying beside the bucket, breathless and unresponsive.

"She was calmly and without emotion telling police what had happened," Bishop told jurors.

One of the first cops on the scene said Khan coolly answered questions and didn't appear concerned that the baby had died.

"She was very calm," Det. Brian Simonsen told jurors. "She didn't seem to be upset."
