       What an absolutely horrid thing to do to her infant!  That poor dear baby - the pain he must have endured during 
Those six weeks, I can't begin to imagine. It wasn't even a one time anger fit; she must have hated him/her.👶

Why was she only charged with one count when they know it was on going, not a one time thing? 

POS should be spayed or neutered, or whatever they do to bitches.
