Texas Teen gives Birth in School Bathroom, Kills Baby in Toilet

BAYTOWN, Texas - Police say a 14 year-old girl gave birth in a bathroom at her junior high school and then tried to flush the newborn down the toilet.

It happened Thursday, April 2, 2008, near Houston, Texas.

Police say the baby was born alive, but died when the mother tried several times to flush the child.

Students reported hearing the baby crying. Police are treating the case as a homicide.

Earlier this week a 14 year-old delivered a stillborn fetus in an airplane bathroom and left it in the trash on a flight to Houston. No charges were filed in that case.

I think the one who tried to flush the baby down the toilet and killed the baby in the process should be charged with first degree murder.
The one who left the stillborn baby in the trash can on the airplane should be charged with  destruction of a corpse.
Both these teens were old enough to know what they were doing having sex.  Both of them were old enough to know they were pregnant.  Both of them were old enough to know to seek medical attention during their pregnancies-and heaven knows there are plenty of services available.  There are plenty of couples so wanting babies to adopt.  Maybe that stillborn would have been alive under different circumstances.  That would have been two lives loved by two families grateful to have precious gifts from God...not excretement to be flushed or trash to be thrown away.  That is the abortion generation mind set.

They should treat this as a homicide because it is murder. This 14 yr made the decision to have unprotected sex. She made the decision to kill her newborn. This is probably another case of now or later.  Had she not killed the newborn, it’s likely the child would have ended up dead from negligence or physical abuse before the age of three. For some unknown reason, children today are severely lacking in morals and common sense. Teens need to realize it’s not okay to live like animals, breed like animals, and kill their babies like animals

This is sickening. I agree that 14 years old is old enough to understand pregnancy and know that a baby is a human life. They may not fully be able to comprehend all the repercussions of sex (on an adult level) but they comprehend enough.

I was not stupid at 14. Could not have used my age as an excuse.

i find it strang that NOONE commented on the fact of, why the F**KING HEII is a minor having a baby. THat is the problem here, not that they ended the lives of a child. THey are children themselves.
Who are the parents of these children and why are they not being charged with child neglect, child endangerment? A 12 or 13 year old has absolutly NO BUSINESS HAVING A GOD DAM BABY you fricken morons. What are you thinkj ing, this is normal?
A baby has no business having a baby. This is neglect, these children should be taken away for thier "parental figures" because this is WRONG!!!!

I disagree that the problem is a minor having a baby and not that she ended a baby's life.  It is absolutely both problems, but the fact is, minor or not, this person committed murder.  She should be punished.  She is old enough to understand that attempting to flush your new born baby down the toilet is WRONG.

rwe38133, we usually don't agree, but you do make good points and I respect your opinions.  Please do not sink to the depths of someone as moronic and insignificant as Datruth4u.  You are wasting your time even bothering to respond to him.

I think it doesn't make any difference if this was a white,black, purple, green, brown, red, yellow, polka dotted, or striped girl.  I think this gets back to Memphis mentality-race, race, race.

CATGIRL DO YOU REALIZE THAT SHE MAY NOT HAVE HAD THE MONEY TO HAVE A DOCTOR PARTIALLY DELIVER IT - STAB IT THROUGH THE BACK OF ITS HEAD AND VACUUM OUT ITS BRAIN.  Have a heart for those less fortunate among us.  She unlike you may not have been able to pay for the trip to "planned" parenthood

Because of intolerant people like you she had to resort to this.

oh, excuse me. I am not from the south. I didn't realize that 11 or 12 year old CHILDREN was a normal function.
That is sick, just plain sick. I'm sorry.
It's not a normal mental process to want to knock up a 11 year old CHILD for crying out loud.
I don't care if she got knocked up by her boyfriend or her father, it is not NORMAL.
11 year old children should be playing hop scotch, watching cartoons, having crushes on movie stars, not walking around with babies in thier bellies.
You southerners are just morally & mentally messed up, bottom line!

Oh come on East Memphis...get a grip.  A 14 year old knows that flushing the baby down a toilet is wrong!  That was a choice.  There is NOTHING intolerant about CatGirl.  You are just trying to stir the turds.

First of all, your post makes no sense.  You didn't realize that 11 or 12 year old CHILDREN was a normal function?  HUH?  And trust me you moron, perversion and crime happen everywhere in this country.  The south doesn't have a corner on that market!

Whoever you are. prolife fanatic is my name. you can call me fanatic all day long if it means protecting babies, unborn and born.
I will also be the one to inject lethal doses for the death penalty people any day, any time.  I will also be the one to limit appeals of death penalty verdicts, as long as DNA has been used in the process.
I'd like to see the prisons based on military camps with tents, and very hig fences with rows and rows of razor wire.   I would like to see only basic needs met and justice meeted out for punishment-debt paid to society.  I would like to see prisons be so undesirable that those who serve their full time want to change their ways so they do not have to return.
Yes, whoever you are, my name is fanatic.

I didn’t acknowledge your presence on any blog until you found the need to include my moniker in your stupid comment from another topic. (copy above)  Use whatever moniker you want. It doesn’t change the fact that you are a racist fool. Refrain from referencing my moniker/comments in your idiotic posts…….. and I’ll return the favor.

Now, now, gmoney, you know I don't attack you. I disagree with you most of the time but.... most people do.  Of course, I'm a fan...I just dislike your biased opinions. lol

As for putting you and datruth4u in the "same mix" ...if BOTH of you would lay off the multiple exclamation points when you post.... I would un-mix you. lol

“Btw –there is no 5 letter word that would apply to your attempt at sarcasm. If you meant a$$, use spellcheck because that’s only 3 letters. As for my hand…….I’m looking at it.

Why is it that the people that always try to say that they are smarter and better than everyone never can use correct grammar? If you are so smart, why is grammar so difficult?
  I know the answer. Until people can use correct grammar, they shouldn't put themselves so much higher than everyone.
  I heard about a 6th grader in Frayser that was pregnant. If these kids want to act like adults and have sex, they should be treated like adults when they kill a baby they didn't want.

Oh, the reason there is no picture is that she is a minor that will possibly face charges and therefore, her picture can not be shown.

Yes, charge her as an adult. If she was grown enough 2 lay down and get pregnant then she should of been old enough 2 take care of her child, not kill the baby. That's why babies shouldn't have babies!
