Mother Accused Of Cracking Son's Skull With Squeeze

SALEM, Ind. -- A woman told police she squeezed her 2-month-old son's head until she heard his skull crack because he wouldn't stop crying, prosecutors said.

Lacey Edwards, 21, faces felony charges of battery and neglect of a dependent for the injuries her son suffered on Feb. 24. She was being held on $50,000 cash bond Thursday night in the Washington County Jail in Salem, about 30 miles north of Louisville, Ky.

According to an affidavit filed in Washington Circuit Court, Edwards told state police Detective Dave Mitchell that her children were crying while she was doing housework at her Campbellsville home. Edwards has three children -- 2-month-old twins and an 11-month-old.

Edwards allegedly became frustrated when one of the twins, Michael Buskirk, kept crying after the others stopped. According to the affidavit, she squeezed the baby's head and felt it cave in, but he continued to cry "so she squeezed his head a second time during which time she felt and heard his skull crack."

Mitchell's affidavit said that Edwards did not take the baby to the hospital or report the injury until a visiting nurse arrived and noticed his condition about six hours later.

The infant was taken to a hospital in Bedford for treatment, Washington County Prosecutor Cynthia Winkler said. Details of his condition were unavailable. The other children were placed in foster care, Winkler said.

Both charges against Edwards carry possible sentences of six years to 20 years in prison.

There are some messed up people in this world. I can't imagine someone doing that. Thats whats wrong with the world, they will let anyone be a parent.

I also heard another story, I don't know how long ago it was but I think it was recently.

These two college kids were seeing each other and she got pregnant. When she had the baby they didn't know what to do. So they killed it and put it in a trash can.

These stories make me sick to my stomach, literally.

That is so horrible Poor baby, that's totally BARBARIC and i think that woman is deranged in the head. She deserves all the shame and prison service she gets, as that is not just a crime, it's an absolute disgrace. I am pretty much squirming when i think of the scene on the night of that baby's death - (shudder).

Also,I couldn't help but notice that she's twenty-one and already had 3 kids.

^The baby is not dead, thank god.

I pray that she is never allowed to see her children again.

I pray that she is never allowed to see her children again.

Or have any other children.


That disgusts me...I just don't understand how people can do deranged crap like that.

[RICHARD]

god blinked again.


In Alhambra, California a newborn baby, with the umbilical cord still attached, was thrown 40 feet onto the railroad tracks, to it's death.

Officials are still looking for the mother who gave birth to that baby.

In California the law allows you to go to a fire station or hospital and turn an unwanted baby over to officals, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

It's not god's fault......
blame the people he put on the earth.

Oh, Richard, how absolutely awful.

I just don't even know what else to say, it just sickens me to think of the horror.

Yes this kind of behavior just makes me sick to my stomack.. Just as a case is going on in Dallas Tx of a mother cut both of her young daughter's arms off so she would bleed to death (which did) & mother stated someone told her too in her mind.. My confirmed statment is what happened to the saying ***** DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU *****

[lizbud]

It's enough to break your heart & it seems to happen a lot these
days. Or maybe, it's just being reported more these days? I can't
believe that a supreme being would let the innocent among us suffer so.

How awful, that's horrific, her own daughter it's despicable(sp?). Same with the incident Richard just mentioned, they just make you want to reach out to those children and comfort them and heal them.

I know this is a sensitive subject.

What choices does a child have?

A life of cruelty at the hands of an abuser-

Or the end of a short life?

That baby was put into a plastic bag and tossed away like trash.

That baby with the crushed skull was given a chance.

What are the odds of surviving a 40 foot drop onto a railroad bed?


God doesn't have a say in that matter.


Look closer to the heart of man.
You may not find an answer there-but you will see evil.

Remember what the bible said.

God made man in his image. He stopped when it was time to put in the heart and brains.
