A Region 8 woman, who admitted to throwing her now-deceased baby across the room, now faces neglect and manslaughter charges.
Police arrested Rebecca Mae Cox, 29, of Batesville on Tuesday on suspicion of manslaughter and first-degree endangering the welfare of a minor.
On Sunday, Dec. 13, Cox told investigators she found her 3-month-old son dead in his crib next to his twin brother.
According to court documents, Cox said she “noticed cockroaches crawling out of his mouth.”
When police arrived at the home, located in the 1500-block of North State Street, one of the officers administered infant cardio pulmonary resuscitation until an ambulance crew arrived and took the baby to White River Medical Center. The child was pronounced dead.
During their investigation, police learned that Cox “did not have a connection” with her deceased son and “could not stand him or stand holding him.”
The Arkansas State Police Crimes Against Children Division reported receiving an anonymous tip from someone who “witnessed several disturbing behaviors” from Cox, including “tossing” the infant from some distance to his father, identified as Michael Goodman
quote:
According to the affidavit, she tested positive for methamphetamine, benzodiazepines, and THC (marijuana).
Goodman also tested positive for methamphetamine and benzodiazepines.
Cox also stated she knew the house was “bad” and the living conditions were “horrible.”
According to the court documents, investigators reported finding piles of dirty clothing and old food in the floor of the bedroom where the babies slept.
An investigators stated the house had a “severe” roach infestation.
“The roaches were observed crawling on the floor, table, appliances, furnishings, countertops and high chairs,” the affidavit stated.

I would shoot her in the head and then make the scene look like a suicide, but that's why I never went into law enforcement.

Either yours or Pigfeet's idea work for me. No need to drag it out into the legal system.

She doesn't deserve a quick death. I'd be willing to volunteer a few hours each day to beat the shite out of her. Just show me where to sign up.

Not exactly what I was wanting to read on a Friday morning. :-/
Just donate her to ISIL.

Throw her in jail, get her into drug rehab, make sure she never sees her other child(ren) ever again. Prison after drug rehab.

More evidence that this world is in desperate need of a purge. I'm sure the POS woman had a terrible childhood, and she just continued the cycle with her kids. I see so many poor kids out there that literally have little to no chance of ever being productive citizens. Everything starts at home. Makes me mad and sad in the same breath.

Maybe one day, her surviving kid(s) will grow up and wonder about their real mom, and they'll reach out and her mom will get a shot at some kind of redemption by having a relationship with her adult children who hopefully grow into healthy adults with good lives.

She would need learned counsel, a formal charge, a trial/plea proceeding with a disposition resulting in a conviction before the issue of punishment was addressed. You know, Consitutuonal rights, due process, and all those things.
