Maybe she jumped.

An Oklahoma woman has been sentenced to a total of 45 years in prison for murdering her baby. The 10-day-old child was found drowned in a washing machine. The mother pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter and child neglect. She says she put the baby in the bassinet and has no idea how she got into the machine. Gosh, maybe she climbed out of the bassinet, toddled over to the machine, and jumped in.
