Mother who burned baby gets community service
We could maybe see this as proper justice if it was a certainty the infant was stillborn, but as that fact is still up in the air, it really smacks that this chick got away with infanticide:
A New Brunswick woman who dismembered and burned the body of her newborn baby in a fire pit last year will not have to go to jail.
Instead, Becky Sue Morrow, 27, was sentenced in provincial court Friday to two concurrent 14-month conditional sentences to be served in the community. She pleaded guilty last June to burning her baby’s body in an effort to hide his birth…
According to police testimony last March, Morrow had given birth to her son while sitting on her bathroom toilet. She then wrapped him in a blanket and put him in a box.
The next day, she burned the box in a fire pit behind her house, police said.
It was never determined if the baby was still alive when it was put in the fire pit.
