1. horrible story.

poor baby and poor family. Just to clarify, I don't believe it was the baby's mother who did this.They described her as a 52 year old woman who was a relative.

So, so sad.

2. Apparently the grandmother, not the mother.

How awful! No doubt some very serious mental illness is involved. http://abc7chicago.com/news/cops-woman-killed-baby-with-power-saw-in-little-village/550684/

3. Her baby?

Wow. Fifty-two is kind of mature to have a nine-month-old baby. Anyway, horrible.
