Wellington mom arrested in newborn's co-sleeping death - News - The Palm Beach Post - West Palm Beach, FL

More than a year after being awakened by her husband’s screams that their baby wasn’t breathing, a Wellington mother has been arrested on a negligent manslaughter charge in her newborn’s co-sleeping death.

Genna Aaronson, 33, was booked Wednesday morning into the Palm Beach County Jail on a charge tied to her son Clarke Jacob Aaronson’s Jan. 6, 2018, death, sheriff’s authorities said. She is scheduled to appear before a judge at a bail hearing Thursday morning.

State records indicate Clarke had been hospitalized a few days prior to his death because he had fallen out of the bed in which he was sleeping with his father. The details of that incident were not immediately available, and it was unclear how seriously the baby was injured. 

Hospital staff said they told the parents not to sleep with the baby. They performed a drug test on Clarke’s father, Peter Aaronson, who tested positive for marijuana, state records show. Genna Aaronson refused to take a drug test.
