Illinois mother charged with murdering 2-year-old son

–

Neutral summary

Corie Walsh, 38, of Frankfort, Illinois, has been formally charged with three counts of first-degree murder after her two-year-old son Barrett was found dead in the basement of their home on Tuesday. A neighbor who discovered the boy called police and emergency services, but the child was already cold and pulseless, and paramedics' resuscitation attempts failed. Walsh was also taken to the hospital after allegedly attempting to harm herself. According to court documents, she confessed to investigators that she killed her son because she believed he was the 'anti-Christ' and 'the devil,' and she had reportedly been discussing the Lindsay Clancy case with friends just hours before the killing.
