Woman murdered her newborn baby with 53 stab wounds
Silvia had given birth to a baby boy in the apartment, in which she shared with her partner, whom she stabbed 53 times and then disposed of the body of the newborn by throwing it in a dumpster in front of the house where she lived, throwing it with the umbilical cord and the placenta in a backpack.
Apparently, the woman started this crime before her partner returned home from work.
The baby’s body was found in the early hours of the morning by one of the neighbors and he alerted the authorities.
Days later, the police returned to the scene of the crime to carry out some compensations in which neither Silvia nor her partner had participated as they had gone on vacation.
After several investigations, the review of videos from verification cameras and DNA tests, they discovered that Silvia had been the baby’s murderer.
Silvia’s partner, friends and family, including her neighbors, denied knowing that she was pregnant, as she is of stocky build.
The woman’s partner indicated that when she returned from work, she found a lot of blood inside the house. Silvia told him that it was due to a massive hemorrhage she had suffered from an ovarian cyst.
Later, after the young woman’s arrest, it was proven through a gynecological examination that she did not have that health problem and that she had therefore lied.
Being guilty of having murdered her newborn son with 53 stab wounds, it will be next week that the judge will determine the sentence to be imposed on Silvia.
