Kansas City, Missouri police are investigating a 20 year-old woman who allegedly tried to flush her newborn son down a toilet at a McDonald's restaurant.

Both the baby and the mother, who works at the McDonald's,
are at the hospital being treated after the incident yesterday
afternoon.

Capt. Rich Lockhart said workers became concerned after the
woman didn't return from the restroom. The workers quickly called
paramedics after checking on her. Lockhart said the woman told paramedics that she tried to flush the baby down the toilet several times. He said the child was still in the toilet and wasn't breathing when paramedics arrived. They administered CPR on the child and rushed him and the mother to the hospital.

Police said the newborn is expected to survive. The mother hasn't been charged. An investigation continues.

Yet another mom that does not deserve to have children she attempted to murder her child, but didn't get it done I pray that she gets life in prison without parole as well and if not she will pay in hell one day for how she made that baby suffer. I just have no faith what so ever in our judicial system she will more than likely get a slap on the hand just like most the other so called moms do when they murder their child by leaving them in a car, dropping them, or anything else just pray that justice will be served for this newborn baby!!!!!

I know I moved off topic, but it's time America takes a stand and stop letting people kill babies, unborn and born. All life is precious. Wake up AMERICA. No wonder the world is the way it is. The floods, tornados, fires, killings, and so on.
