Baby Dies After Drinking Toxic Milk From His Mother´s Breast

 

Georgia: 25-year-old Kaisha Poulson has been charged with murder after her 2-month-old son Jack died after ingesting methamphetamines from her breast milk.

Police were called to the residence after Poulson found her son dead and went to her neighbours and asked them to dial 911 in March last year. The charge was laid after an autopsy identified the cause of death.

The Fayetteville Police Department´s Scot Israel said, "The mother was breastfeeding the child and passed the methamphetamine to the child resulting in the death of the child."

  I agree with the arrest  
 
but I´m not sure about a conviction. She may have just been ignorant of the consequences to the baby.

Surely manslaughter would be a more appropriate charge in this case?

Yeah, I just misspoke. Murder requires intent and they don´t have evidence of that.

  That has to put off drugs.  
 
That could totally devastate her whole life, it would most mothers.

No, she poisoned her baby. It had already been born, it was not an abortion.

I don´t want to get into the whole pro-choice / pro-life debate, but there is clearly a difference between terminating a pregnancy and killing a baby after giving birth to it.
