Victoria Jimenez, who celebrated her first birthday in March 2009, died several hours after family members made the agonizing decision to remove her from life support on Thursday. She'd been hospitalized since Sunday.

Victoria "had a smile that would light up anyone's heart with peace. The child "was the most beautiful thing in the world,".

Boyfriend Yopher Jimenez was arrested Sunday after authorities received a 911 call that a baby was not breathing and went to the Harding Place address. Authorities said the boyfriend Yopher Jimenez struck the baby, slammed her head against a hard surface and then tried to drown her in a bathtub.

The girl was taken to St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center in Paterson N.J. on Sunday, suffering from a fractured skull, Molinelli said. She also had several rib fractures in various stages of healing, the prosecutor said.

The mother of the child Jakeline Jimenez, 26, of Harding Place, was arrested at the home of relatives on Monday morning and charged with endangering the welfare of her daughter Victoria Jimenez, who died April 9 as a result of head injuries, Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said.

Police say the mother Jakeline knew her boyfriend Yopher was abusing her daughter, but she left her with him anyway, so police charged her with child endangerment.
