Premature baby was alive at birth but 'suffered fatal injuries,' police say
CENTRALIA, Wash. — A 25-year-old woman has been arrested for investigation of first-degree murder in the death of a baby boy born prematurely and found decapitated, Centralia police say.
Laura Lynn Hickey was arrested Wednesday after a weeklong investigation, which included a post-mortem examination of the baby by a forensic pathologist.
The pathologist concluded the 21-week baby was alive at birth but "suffered fatal injuries by decapitation," Officer John Panco said Wednesday night.
Police said the body was found March 2 under the kitchen sink in Hickey's trailer home.
Hickey was scheduled to appear Thursday afternoon in Lewis County Superior Court. Panco said he expected she would be formally charged with first-degree murder.
wow, just wow.
ReplyDeleteInstead of court dates and a trial paid for by tax payers, why don't we just get it over with and decapitate the mother's head.
