Houston baby dumped in trash can dies
A baby in Houston, Texas that was dumped in a hospital garbage can by his mother earlier this month has died. The prosecutor is not going to charge the mother with murder, as he says there was no evident “intent to kill”.
The boy, known as “David” or “Baby Granados” by hospital staff, has been brain dead from the time he was found and revived at Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital on Feb. 9.
The child had been on life support since a custodian discovered him that Saturday night at Southwest Memorial Hermann Hospital. The child had no pulse.
The child’s 29-year-old mother, Genny Granados, told authorities she went to the hospital’s emergency room for a stomach ache. While she was waiting to be seen, she went into a nearby restroom and delivered the baby and said it was not breathing and she thought it was dead, police said. She left it in a trash can and returned to the emergency room waiting area.
