Mother of Utah newborn rescued from trash charged
Salt Lake Tribune ^ | September 5, 2014 | Jessica MIller

Posted on 09/05/2014 9:34:31 PM PDT by BenLurkin

A conviction on the attempted murder charge is punishable by up to life in prison.

No court dates were immediately set for Englert. But her bail has been doubled, from $250,000 to 500,000, cash-only. She remains incarcerated at the Salt Lake County jail.

According to court documents, Englert allegedly admitted to police that on Aug. 24, she gave birth to the baby in the bathroom of her Kearns home. She wrapped the infant in a towel, left her on the floor, and went to bed, according to charges. The next day, a Monday, she went to work, leaving the child wrapped in the towel on the floor.

After returning from work, Englert could see the infant was still alive because her fingers were moving, according to court records. The following morning — two days after the child’s birth — she put the baby in her neighbor’s garbage can at about 5:45 a.m.

Englert allegedly admitted to police that she put the baby in the trash, telling them, "I don’t want it."

The mother also allegedly told police that she did not know she was pregnant until the day she delivered the child into a toilet, and said she did not feed or care for the infant after the birth

We should all be praying for the infant’s full recovery. That is what is the immediately important issue.

How did she manage to conceive?

I mean, she's not exactly Gisele Bundchen.

Look, I work with a woman who looks like a cross between Olive Oyl and Yassir Arafat, and she got some guy to knock her up. Strange, but true.

She looks like a victim of Fetal alcohol syndrome.

Some of central nervous system effects of FAS are memory problems, poor judgement, distractibility, impulsiveness
