The preliminary autopsy report on the newborn infant that was allegedly killed by it’s mother and her boyfriend is in but has not being released at this time.
Justice of the Peace Mike McAuliffe’s office has confirmed they have received the report.
It was earlier this week that Abilene Police responded to the 400 block of South 25th Street after Hendrick Medical Center staff reported doctors examined a woman who had just given birth, but there was no baby with her when she checked into the hospital.
Officers executed a search warrant after learning the remains of the newborn may be located on the property. The initial investigation lead police to believe the remains were located somewhere in the home’s drainage system, so they called plumbers to the scene who snaked the drain and located the sewage pipe.
Detectives were only able to find birth tissue in the pipe. The baby was later located inside of the home. APD says the newborn’s body was hidden and exhibited “visible trauma.”
Several suspects are being questioned in connection to this crime as the Abilene Police Department moves forward with a homicide investigation.
Court documents indicate Craker’s family members may have aided in the birth and/or murder of the newborn.
