HOUSTON --- Houston police are investigating the death of a newborn.
11 News has learned a woman discovered what has turned out be her grandson in the trunk of her car parked in the 6400 block of Foster near Cosby. But police say they don't think she is the one who put the baby there.
Police were called to the southeast Houston home around 11 p.m. Monday after the grandmother drove the car and found the newborn baby boy dead in the trunk.
The baby appeared to be less than 24-hours old.  
The baby's mother, 18-year-old Raquel Green, is at Ben Taub Hospital and is being questioned by police.
Her family says they knew nothing of Green's pregnancy and dismissed notions that Green may have had something to do with the baby's death.
"No, she knows the Bible, she goes to church," said Green's great-grandmother Charles Etta Williams. "No, no, no, it's not in her heart. It's not there. Murder is not there. Murder is not in her heart."
Green, who also has an older son, is reportedly being treated for complications from the child's birth.
Police tell 11 News an autospy will be performed to determine how the baby died. So far, no charges have been filed.

What in the world?
And what about that grandmother so sure that her grand-daughter is the innocent one? How messy is that?!!! Everybody that goes to church ain't (yes, ain't) pure in heart. I co-sign with jojapeach. That is just out of this world.
