A woman sentenced to six years in prison for leaving her newborn to die in a motel bathroom has accused the baby's father of fraud, alleging he posed as a doctor and took her money as she attempted to arrange an abortion, which fell through.
The woman was convicted of murder caused by child abuse by a local court.
The man, the newborn's biological father, dated the woman until January 2025 before they broke up. She later discovered she was pregnant and agreed with him that she would have an abortion.
