PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. (Gray News) – A woman was charged with the murder of her 3-month-old daughter, according to police in Florida.
The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office responded to a home in December for a report of an unresponsive 3-month-old baby.
Paramedics also responded and took the child to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead a short time later.
