Suspect
The Gazette reported that a woman was taken into custody in Oklahoma. Social media reports on the incident imply that Hancock knew the suspect, but Heavy has not yet confirmed her identity.
The McCurtain Gazette-News reported that “the alleged suspect is believed to have kidnapped and fled with the newborn, who later died here,” in McCurtain County, Oklahoma. That suspect is described as a 27-year-old woman from Simms, Texas.
That suspect was speeding near DeKalb when she was stopped by a Texas trooper at 10 a.m. on Friday, the paper reported. She told him that she “had just given birth and her newborn baby, which was in the car, was not breathing.” The trooper tried to perform CPR but could not revive the baby and called for an ambulance. She was taken to McCurtain Memorial, where “a doctor … knew very quickly that she had not given birth.”
When reports came in at 1 p.m. that a woman was murdered and her baby taken, police returned to the hospital, arrested the suspect. In custody, she “reportedly confessed to the murder and kidnapping, telling officers she told her boyfriend that she was pregnant in February and they even had a gender reveal party,” the paper reported.
The suspect has two children, ages six and 10, and told law enforcement that she didn’t know Hancock well. “She reportedly told officers she only knew the deceased pregnant woman by her first name and thought they were the same age,” the paper reported.
Charges
The suspect could federal charges in addition to local murder charges since she is accused of crossing state lines with the infant.
