New information in the investigation of the University of Kentucky cheerleader Laken Snelling’s case, whose infant was discovered in a rubbish bag in her bedroom closet, suggests the baby may have been born alive.
Snelling pleaded not guilty to mishandling “a corpse, tampering with physical evidence, and concealing the birth of an infant,” despite earlier admitting to giving birth and hiding the evidence.
She has since dropped out of school and been placed under house arrest at her parents’ home in Tennessee.
