Mum, 28, facing murder charges after ‘dumping newborn baby boy in bin while he was still alive’

A Connecticut woman, Dominique Harrison, has been arrested and charged with murder after her newborn son's body was found in a dumpster nearly a decade ago. Harrison, now 28, appeared in court last week, where prosecutors detailed the harrowing circumstances of the baby's abandonment while he was still alive. This case has reignited discussions around the tragic consequences of infanticide and the importance of support systems for new mothers. The arrest underscores the need for better mental health resources and interventions to prevent such devastating outcomes.
