Green's small white casket was trimmed in silver and surrounded by pink and white flowers. It laid at Divine Faith Ministries International as family and friends passed by.

WSB learned Thursday an employee already filled out a state required check list saying the 2-year-old had returned safely, according to court documents.

“That’s stupidity. That’s taking shortcuts on their job,” Jazmin’s father, Charles Green, said Thursday night when informed of the affidavit’s contents.

The affidavit was filed in connection with the arrests of center administrator Marlo Fallings, 41, her 23-year-old daughter Quantabia Hopkins and a juvenile assistant.

The affidavit shows that it took employees more than hour to call 911 after they realized Jazmin was missing.

Several attempts to reach Fallings Thursday were unsuccessful. She did not respond to voicemail messages seeking comment.

The women's defense attorney, Bruce Harvey, denied that Fallings and Hopkins falsified documents and tried to cover up the tragedy and that they waited more than an hour to call authorities.

“There is a lot of discrepancy in the various reports,” he said. “It’s too early to know the details.”

However, Jazmin’s father is outraged.

"My child could have been saved," Charles Green told the AJC. "While my daughter is dying, you [center personnel] are trying to hide something. What are you doing for an hour?"

Fallings and Hopkins were arrested Tuesday on charges of cruelty to children, reckless conduct and involuntary manslaughter. They were released Wednesday on $35,000 bond.

State regulations require daycare operators to complete and sign a checklist documenting the number of children who embark on an outing and the number who leave the vehicle. In addition, they are required to perform a sweep of the vehicle after each trip to ensure that no one is left behind.

Monday’s tragedy began when Hopkins oversaw an outing for eight children to Chuck E. Cheese restaurant in Fayetteville.

According to the affidavit filed with the application for Fallings’ arrest warrant, Hopkins signed the checklist attesting that all eight children were removed from the van when it arrived back at the center around 2 p.m.

But under questioning Hopkins and Fallings acknowledged that the “checklist in actuality was completed showing all children removed prior to the van arriving at the day care center,” the affidavit says.
