Bridge jumper gets probation

By Tonia Noe-Rose - Staff Writer

The 50-year-old Owingsville woman who jumped from a bridge holding her 3-year-old step-granddaughter has received a probationary sentence.

Theresa Jordan jumped 27 feet from the KY 211 (Bath County) overpass and onto the shoulder of Interstate 64 while holding McKayla Carpenter.

The March 18, 2007 incident left Jordan and the child with serious injuries that required both to be airlifted to the University of Kentucky Medical Center. Authorities said the impact broke the child’s leg and damaged one of her arteries.

Jordan was ordered on probation for five years, during which time she is not to have contact with the child. Prosecutors had recommended a two-year jail sentence.
