Teen Mom Throws Her Newborn Down A Garbage Chute — And He SURVIVES!

The baby boy laid amongst rotting trash for TEN HOURS after his mom sent him plummeting several stories into a deadly garbage compactor.

He was eventually saved when maintenance workers on a Brooklyn, New York housing complex heard his cries and pulled him to safety.

Amazingly the infant only survived a grisly death because the compactor was jammed with garbage.

The unnamed boy is in stable condition at Brooklyn Hospital. His 18-year-old mom Laquasia Wright was quickly found and arrested and has been charged with attempted murder.

It happened on May 21, just weeks after another New York mom dumped her newborn in a hospital trash can. That story ended in tragedy — 23-year-old Dawa Lama‘s baby daughter died and the runaway mom is now facing possible murder charges.

Is it a horrible coincidence HollyMoms — or the start of a worrying trend?

That is so scary that these mothers are doing this to their children! Seriously if you don’t want your babies there is adoption! There are people who would love to have children that can’t. Having someone else raise your baby is WAY better than murder!
