She found the baby boy naked with his umbilical cord still attached, lying on the ground next to the garbage area for the building.<\/p>\n<p>She called police, who found blood on the ground, on the wall leading up to the first floor bathroom window, and on the window sill. The baby was taken to a local hospital and was placed on a ventilator before being transferred to Cohen Children&#8217;s Medical Center. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/10\/12\/queens-mom-tossed-baby-out-from-window-after-giving-birth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Post<\/a>, doctors said he suffered hypothermia, a traumatic brain injury with bleeding and swelling on the brain and scalp as well as an abdominal injury with internal bleeding.

I cut the cord with a scissor from the bathroom. I panicked and threw it out of the bathroom window. I did not check on the baby, I put my clothes in the laundry hamper in the bathroom, I showered and went to sleep.&#8221; She had allegedly given birth in the bathtub.<\/p>\n<p>Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Tuesday that Dookram has been charged with attempted murder, assault, reckless endangerment, tampering with physical evidence, abandonment of a child, and acting in a manner to injure a child. She <a href=\"https:\/\/abc7ny.com\/queens-baby-newborn-found-in-south-ozone-park-126th-street\/6973084\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">received<\/a> a psychiatric evaluation at Jamaica Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a heartbreaking situation. A newborn baby has suffered greatly because of the alleged actions of his mother, who now faces serious charges and a lengthy prison sentence,&#8221; Katz said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>While Dookram is facing attempted murder charges for this act, abortion is legal in New York, which codified <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> into law with its Reproductive Health Act in January 2019. Because of this, the RHA \u2014 despite fact checks claiming the contrary \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/four-myths-new-york-abortion-truth\/\">allows for abortion up to birth<\/a>, thanks to the language contained in <em>Roe<\/em>&#8216;s partner decision, <em>Doe v. Bolton<\/em>, which allows for abortion throughout nine months for any reason, including financial, mental, or familial.<\/p>\n<p>Killing a child before birth is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sledtest.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">no different<\/a> than killing a child after birth. A human being&#8217;s size, level of development, environment, and level of dependency do not determine their value.
