Mother arrested in 2001 cold case death of infant found on side of road

JOHNSON COUNTY, Texas (TCN) -- Officials recently identified and arrested the mother of an infant whose remains were found nearly 23 years ago on the side of a road. According to the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office, in November 2001, an individual picking up cans on the side of Briar Oaks Road found the infant’s body wrapped in a jacket with her umbilical cord still attached. Investigators allege the baby girl was likely born alive outside a hospital and had recently died. The sheriff’s office named her "Angel Baby Doe" because they were unable to identify her at the time. Auth
