What a great mom ! Part IV
Woman put newborn in garbage bag
Meshia Morant (BSO)
LAUDERDALE LAKES - She denied she had given birth even as she was caught holding a white garbage bag with a crying newborn in it, the Broward Sheriff's Office said today.
Meshia Morant, 30, was arrested Tuesday and faces a charge of attempted murder. She is in jail on no bond.
The baby girl, now 2 weeks old, is in good health and has been placed in the care of a friend by child protection officials.
Meshia Morant admitted putting her baby in a bag filled with garbage when she was confronted on the morning of June 14 by a couple she was living with in the 3400 block of Northwest 50 Avenue, according to the Sheriff's Office.
Authorities say a man arrived home about 6:15 a.m. and found a blood trail that led from the living room to the kitchen.
He heard a baby cry and asked Morant if she had given birth to a baby, the Sheriff's Office said. She denied it.
As Morant stood in the doorway holding a garbage bag, the woman living in the home asked her again about giving birth.
Morant responded that the baby was in the bag, and the woman took the closed bag from Morant and found the baby inside, authorities said.
The woman called police.
The mother and child were taken to Plantation General Hospital, where Morant confessed to putting the baby in the bag, said Alesia Russell, a Sheriff's Office spokeswoman.
Officials said they also placed a immigration hold on Morant, a Jamaican citizen who was in the country illegally.
