In relation to an incident at a nearby fast-food restaurant last week, a Texas lady was taken into custody and subsequently charged with the mistreatment of a corpse.
Authorities in Texas claim that after entering the establishment, the woman locked herself in the restroom for hours, during which time she gave birth.
After being taken to the hospital, the newborn was pronounced dead by the medical staff. An autopsy will establish the cause of death, and if investigators discover she injured the infant, charges could be escalated, police officials said.
Investigators found that after giving birth, the mother allegedly attempted to flush the baby down the toilet.
When a restaurant employee contacted 911 and reported the occurrence to the operator, the investigation got underway. The woman was taken into custody by the responding cops after they approached her.
Authorities in Texas found out throughout the inquiry that the woman entered the company at noon, remained there all day, and then went into the restroom around one in the morning.
Authorities were informed by the unnamed employee that he had offered the woman water and checked on her multiple times. The witness claimed that the defendant made odd noises inside the building II.
A few hours later, the staff member warned the woman that they would call the police if she didn’t leave the restroom. The witness was able to observe the newborn shortly after the woman left the stall, according to Express News, a local news outlet.
The mom tried to flush the infant down the toilet but was unsuccessful, according to the first responders. According to a statement from the authorities, the infant had to be forcibly removed from the toilet’s U-trap drain by first responders.
After being taken to the hospital, the newborn was pronounced dead by the medical staff. The woman gave birth in a bathroom at 30 weeks pregnant, according to the authorities.
The affidavit claims that the infant suffered brain injuries after being pushed and flushed down the toilet drain.
