I don't really get into these types of stories.
 
I think it's really a question of neglect... whether or not she killed the baby at birth nobody would know.. but could she have neglected the baby to the point of death and be convicted of the murder that way? i.e., not going to the doctor, not telling anyone during delivery.
 
If you really need me to explain why I find this thread to be a microcosm of his weirdness, you’re not half as smart as I thought you were.
 
What was going on in her home life that made her do something so desperate is far more interesting to me than whether she killed her child outright or by neglect.

Yeah that's the subplot... she's a cheerleader and her mom is apparently very concerned about her being a certain weight and not being pregnant... and she seemed really scared of her parents or her mother more specifically.

Also this was around the time of the prom and she was very concerned about being able to fit into her dress and going there with her boyfriend and not have him notice that she was pregnant.

All this lead to her giving birth in the middle of the night in a home with both her parents and a younger brother and a dog present without anyone ever noticing.

You're right it's very interesting.

So she went for a natural childbirth? That's awesome! No drugs to cloud the experience. No distractions. Just her and labor.

I think more women should give birth at home, alone, with their family undisturbed.

I bet she paid $0. Prove she didn't!
