Kiyana Higgins: History of Abuse
I found an article regarding the Kiyana Higgins trial with many more details. As I previously reported, her 1-year-old daughter died from malnourishment and she, her sister, and mother have all been indicted for murder one. The first article I linked to did not mention that she has two other children that the women have […]
Eddie Salazar Sr.- What Really Happened?
This story is despicable. A man invented four different stories to cover up the fact that he murdered- possibly accidently- his infant son. At first, Eddie Salazar Sr., 31, even created an elaborate scenario involving men breaking into his house and him being knocked unconscious as explanation for the baby’s disappearance. What actually happened was […]

Jamie Burcham Attempts to Give Up Newborn
This is a new one. A mother recognized that she was unable to care for her newborn and left it in the care of a family member. I was confused at first as to why the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services would have a problem with this. They said a new parent cannot leave their […]

The girl was wrapped in a striped towel, which hopefully could jog a memory and bring the culprit to justice. A neighbor attempted to perform CPR on […]
Baby Left Alone in Apartment
This story is a new kind of sad. A two-month-old baby girl was left alone in an apartment for up to 3 days when police finally found her. Her parents had been arrested the day before, but neighbors say they heard no noise in the apartment for a few days prior to that. The only […]
Mother Gives Birth and Leaves Child in Backyard
My initial reaction to today’s story was: “Well, this is ridiculous!” A 35-year-old woman gave birth to a baby boy, then wrapped him in a towel and left him on the ground in her backyard overnight. The woman Kimberly Lee claims that she thought the baby was not alive at birth. Yet, her 13-year-old son […]
Missouri Baby Survives Stab Wounds
No one is really sure what happened in this case. The only facts we can see so far are that a mother took her baby into the woods near her Missouri home and when the police found them, both had knife wounds. The baby survived despite having her throat slit. There has been a lot […]
