\"Unknown\"Another dead baby has been found at a school. This time the tiny person wasn\u2019t found in a bathroom trash bin; instead, the deceased child was stuffed into a backpack and dropped<\/a> off to the school nurse by its mother.<\/p>\n

Apparently the woman who gave birth to the\u00a0child is a student at urban Syracuse\u2019s William Nottingham High School, where the school nurse, after checking inside a smelly backpack<\/a> the girl asked her to look after, alerted police to what she found inside.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Syracuse police Chief Frank Fowler said at a news conference that homicide has not been ruled out and that investigators are attempting to determine the baby\u2019s age and cause of death.<\/p>\n

According to the Syracuse Police Department, thus far, the\u00a0investigation into the newborn\u2019s death indicates that the child\u00a0was not born at the school and died prior to being\u00a0left in the nurse’s office.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s not crystal clear to us what happened,\u201d said Fowler. \u201cWe have an obligation at this point to find out exactly what occurred and that’s the purpose of our investigation.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the investigation is ongoing, Fowler said respecting the girl’s rights is important.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’re talking about the fact that a young lady who attends this school has given birth and we’re talking about the fact that this baby is deceased,\u201d said Fowler. \u201cThis is a medical issue. So, it’s a very sensitive subject.\u201d<\/p>\n

District officials said that they understand how delicate the subject is. That\u2019s why, in response, School Superintendent Sharon Contreras encouraged students facing similar situations to reach out for help.<\/p>\n

Contreras said, \u201cIn every high school, we have family life committees. We help students who are pregnant and parenting, we help make appropriate referrals.\u201d<\/p>\n

The tragedy is that,\u00a0in this case, the mother of the baby who dropped the backpack off in the nurses\u2019 office for safe keeping never visited a family life committee, nor did she avail herself or her baby to an \u2018appropriate referral.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
