The video of the incident was posted on Facebook and has elicited outraged responses from the viewers.
The woman Kaitlyn Wolf of Leeburg, has now said that she is receiving death threats from people after the video went viral. However she denied that she was inflicting any harm on her son. As per reports, the woman has said that it was just a joke and she did not actually put her son’s head inside toilet. She said that his face did not get wet.
In the video the child can be heard screaming “No”. The woman , however, said that though it may appear that the child is screaming hysterically, but he was laughing.
The local police have started an investigation after they received a tip-off by social media users when the video went viral. They are reportedly not convinced on the explanation provided Wolf.
The woman, on the other hand, said that she has been receiving death threats for playing with her son.
While talking to reporters at WESH (Florida based television station), she said people have threatened to kill her, murder her, shove her head in toilet, bury her halfway alive and cut her head off.
