From the Rocky Mountain News:
GRAND JUNCTION — An Alaska woman accused in the death of her newborn has pleaded guilty to a reduced charge and is awaiting sentencing in the case.
Twenty-three-year-old Morgan Hite of Wasilla, Alaska cried as she appeared in a Grand Junction courtroom Monday and entered a guilty plea to a charge of child abuse resulting in death. In exchange for the plea, prosecutors dropped several other charges including first-degree murder.
Hite was accused of giving birth to a boy, now called Gabriel, at a friend's Grand Junction home in February 2008. Prosecutors say she then put the boy in a bag, walked to her parents' home and left the bag in a closet.
Hite's parents found the boy's decomposing body in April.
Hite faces 16 to 24 years in prison when she's sentenced March 19.
I suppose she couldn't see the maternity ward from her house.

She is obviously a democrat. The dems are the people who thinks it is okay to kill kids. Her only offense was that she did it after the child was born. I guess she should have destroyed the child in utero instead, huh? Then it would just be called a choice.
Why did we bring Alaska into the Union again?
It was all for the nookie, Jeev, all for the nookie.
