'Shocking' Baby Murder Lands Suicidal Mom Behind Bars

I will be very curious as to what direction this case will head in regards to "motive" and the why for,,,

A young mother believed to be suffering from depression admitted to investigators that she stabbed her 7-month-old son to death in a Northern California park, police said Sunday.

Ashley Newton, 23, of San Jose was arrested Saturday on suspicion of murder, the East Bay Regional Parks District Police Department said in a statement.

Investigators continue to interview her family and friends in an attempt to make sense of the alleged crime.

"This is an extremely shocking case for us," said Chief Timothy Anderson of the park's police department.

The motive remains unclear, but Anderson said that Newton had a history of depression and appeared to have self-inflicted knife wounds on her wrist.
