Mother in Britain tells court: I flushed newborn in toilet by accident
By The Associated Press
LONDON - A woman has told a British court she accidentally flushed her newborn
down the toilet because she didn't realize she was giving birth.
Claire Jones says she knew she was pregnant from an affair with a colleague but
thought the pain she suffered in the early hours of Dec. 28 was from diarrhea.
Jones told a coroner's court in Cardiff, Wales, today that she only realized
what had happened when she saw a foot in the toilet bowl.
She said she tried unsuccessfully to revive the baby and then put the body in
the trunk of her car.
The corpse was found in Jones' vehicle after she was arrested.
She was given a suspended sentence for concealing the baby's birth.
The coroner's court is investigating the circumstances of the baby's death.
