ORLANDO - A mother who was videotaped spraying her young daughter with a high-pressure water hose at an Orlando carwash has pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery.

A judge sentenced Niurka "Nicki" Ramirez to one year of supervised probation Monday.

Prosecutors had dropped the more serious charges - felony child abuse and culpable negligence - from the February incident.

Ramirez had said she was trying to discipline her 2-year-old daughter for throwing a temper tantrum.

She told authorities she did not use the high-pressure feature on the hose when spraying the child.

A nurse reported that the girl had no visible injuries 11 days after the incident.
