Otty Sanchez, 33, was charged with capital murder in the death of her 3 1/2 week old infant son, whom she partially ate before being discovered and arrested. She has been charged to court and placed on a $1 million dollars bail. According to family sources, Otty Sanches has been a revolving door at a psychiatric hospital before the incident, since no sane being will kill her own son, cut off the head, placed it in a platter and with fork and knife ate up the brains? Gruesome? In Texas, not really! She also chewed off his tiny baby toes for snacks! This is the type of story which makes novelist Stephen King grin like a child in a candy store; it is hair-raising and spin-chilling indeed!
Whether it was post-partum psychosis that led a mother to eat her own child's body-parts, Icheoku does not have a clue but condemns the cannibalism and calls for maximum allowed penalty for the accused man-eater of a mother. It will be recalled that it was in the same Texas that a mother, Andrea Yates, methodically drowned her five children in a bathtub in 2001. Also in 2004, Dena Schlosser killed her 10-month-old in her Plano Texas home, by slicing off the baby's arms. According to her, she killed the baby as a sacrifice and because she want to give her to "God"? Icheoku denounces such nut cases who think that biblical Abraham's call to sacrifice Isaac gives them reason to commit such heinous act as the murder of one's own child? It is condemnable and in view of so many wanna-be mothers who literally go the ends of the earth to seek a child, why did these monsters not give these children up for adoption or even abandon him as in this case; but instead, she craved his brains and now the rest is history.
