A brutal murder of a newborn baby has occurred in the United States.
The baby was killed by his 17-year-old mother who gave birth to him.
The Daily Mail reports on the incident. According to the portal, the girl in question is Leticia Rodriguez, who lived in the American state of Georgia.
A 17-year-old girl gave birth to a child right at home, after which she armed herself with a knife and cut her own umbilical cord.
In the process, the girl accidentally injured the child and decided not to stop there.
She cut out the baby's heart and then tried to dispose of the body.
The 17-year-old girl went to the backyard of her home, where she began digging a grave for the murdered child.
It was while she was doing this that law enforcement officers caught her and discovered the baby, who had been killed with particular cruelty.
