Baby Dies After Falling in Mother's Vomit
AP
NEW YORK (Sept. 22) - A 3-month-old infant fell off a bed into a bucket of her teenage mother's vomit and died, said police, who charged the woman with negligent homicide on Thursday.

Savarin Dejesus, 18, had left the child with a baby sitter at an East Harlem group home where she lived to go out partying Sept. 15, police said.

When she returned, Dejesus vomited in the bucket next to the bed where she fell asleep with her daughter, Niah Ford, in her arms, police said.

The infant later tumbled into the bucket and apparently drowned, police said. Dejesus didn't discover what had happened to her baby until the next afternoon.

The girl was taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead, police said.

Dejesus also was charged with endangering the welfare of a child. She was in police custody late Thursday.

A woman who answered the telephone at Dejesus' group home, the Fox House, declined to comment on the baby's death.

Well I'll be dayumed. And I just spent most of the afternoon consoling a friend of mine who has never had kids, wants them BADLY, but has to have a hystorectomy. (sp)

If I could, I would be a surrogate for her. These stories make me

I don't know if anyone else has been keeping up with this story from East St. Louis, but a woman Tiffany Hall killed a pregnant Jimela Tunstall and cut her fetus out of her womb. Jimela had 3 other kids which had been missing but they found them. There were drowned and stuffed in a washer and dryer.

Autopsy: Slain woman's kids were drowned

EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. - A woman accused of killing a pregnant woman and her fetus told police she drowned the woman's three young children and stuffed them into a washer and dryer at their apartment, an official said Sunday.

Preliminary autopsies on the dead children Sunday appear to show they were drowned, Ace Hart, a deputy St. Clair County coroner, told The Associated Press.

As of Sunday, Tiffany Hall, 24, had not been charged in the children's deaths, but prosecutors on Saturday accused Hall of killing their mother, Jimella Tunstall, 23, and her fetus. The fetus had been cut from her womb, authorities said

I've been following this story from the beginning and I am just in total shock and sadness. I'm 25 and just can't fathom someone my age doing this. These two were young (23 and 24) and grew up together. I know that she (Hall) will probably get the death penalty for this but I pray that she gets the mental help that she so obviously needs. She (Hall) also has 2 daughters of her own. I hope that they are safe and their family gets them into counseling asap. I read as well that Hall's mother and Tunstall's aunt are best friends and have been supporting each other emotionally. What a tragedy for both families.

That's awful. I thought that the Hall lady didn't have any kids. What the hayle is goin' on? Do you all think it's always happened but with the media it's more prevalent?
