How did the reporter KNOW the woman had accidently killed the child? Was that because the child’s body was not found? How does one know events leading to a death if there is no evidence? Idiot reporter. Idiot. First she repeats the story that baby was thrown into trash...but since baby was never found how could reporter know?
Yup, psychotropic drugs cause no harm to individuals or society. Thank you Timothy Leary and Carlos Castaneda.
Because the perp said she had put the baby in the trash.
Yeah...I doubt it was an “accident”
The father probably reported a missing person--his baby. The mother was no doubt questioned by police, and probably admitted what she did, thinking that being high on drugs would be some sort of excuse. Possibly they searched her residence for drug evidence or got corroborating info from a roommate or relative, or even stupid social media posts. As you may have read, she was due to go on trial; so there must have been enough evidence for the DA to charge her. The reporter may have been taking the wording from the charging documents.
Although you have a point that the reporter should have said “alleged to have” — but this is DailyMail, a tabloid.
