According to the Medical Examiner's office, the baby was born alive and later asphyxiated. Society continues its descent.
The girl did not know how to handle the situation. With all the money we pump into public schools, along with how to use a condom, it might be helpful to also instruct girls on what to do in such a situation.
How do you instruct a 17 year old girl what to do with a baby she killed and keep in her handbag ?
I think that long lost art form of common sense should tell any normal human being to tell someone in an authoritative position..."I have a serious problem and need help"
She is either mentally deficient or simply a psychopath...
This is her second baby, so she had more information than most teens.
I cannot fathom why she didn’t take the living baby to a fire department and abandon it. They would have gotten that baby some help... and, after medical treatment, some desperate childless couple might have adopted it when it was old enough to go home.
God help us.
