"For some reason some of the tapes being shown are cut off. There's a section at the end where the mother balls up her fist and punches the child in the head, hard, several times."

I have seen this latter part of the tape, too, and you're right; it isn't always shown. Sometimes it's cut off.

I have seen this latter part of the tape, too, and you're right; it isn't always shown. Sometimes it's cut off.

It is the most damning part of the tape that I've seen. The mom backs away as if she's finished, then she goes back in and proceeds to punch the living daylights of that little baby.

She has turned herself in, but she didn't have the baby -- either that or the child had already been whisked off to the hospital.
