Newborn baby found buried alive
by BARRY WIGMORE Last updated at 20:33pm on 10th October 2006 He looks the picture of health... pink and cuddly and wrapped in clean clothes.
But only hours before, rescuers thought this newborn baby boy was dead after he was buried alive by his distraught mother just after she gave birth, police said.
Neighbours brought the little boy back from the dead when they found him buried with his placenta when a dog started digging and whining around some freshly-dug soil.
The baby was under about eight inches of soil. At first the people thought the child was dead. But as they wiped mud from his face, he opened his eyes and burst out crying.
The boy, who had still not been named last night, was rushed to the Sao Lucas Maternity Hospital in Laranjeiras do Sul, southern Brazil, where he was fed and bathed.
Hospital authorities said the baby who weighed 6lbs 2ozs and measured 18 inches in length, was "remarkably well considering his ordeal."
They said they would keep him under observation for a few days before social services took him to an orphanage.
Police later arrested a woman who neighbours said had been pregnant. The woman at first claimed she'd had a miscarriage, but police said they were considering charging her with attempted murder.

The baby was buried under about eight inches of soil.

Maybe the insanity defense (and its lawyers) has made it way south of the border...

IMO, the mother should be buried under 8 feet of dirt.
I'm glad the child is still alive.

I don't get it either.
It's just as bad as an idiot dumping her newborn in a trash dumpster.

Yes it's depraved and mean as the devil.
Sorry to remind you...but have you forgotten, dear freeperman, they stick scissors in these precious little heads to keep them from being born alive, on the dem side of the aisle?
That's just as bad and gruesome.

No, I have not forgotten about PB Abortions either.
And believe me, I get enraged to boiling-point when I hear of such Satanic-whorshiping [yes, that's what Abortion truly is deep down] acts.
