In an article posted on Friday, the student publication reports that Snelling told medical staff at UK Hospital that "her baby displayed “a little bit of fetal movement” at birth, he made a “whimper” and that she “guessed” the baby was alive."


Burn her at the stake, then. Seriously.

Bump for new info. Baby was known to be alive when put in the garbage bag to suffocate.

WKYT News

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A former UK student charged in her baby’s death has been indicted.

Laken Snelling is accused of hiding the birth and putting the baby’s body in a closet.

On Tuesday, a Fayette County grand jury indicted Snelling on the charges of:

First-degree manslaughter
Abuse of a corpse
Tampering with physical evidence
Concealing the birth of an infant.
The manslaughter charge was added by the convening Grand Jury.

Fayette Commonwealth’s Attorney Kimberly Baird spoke with WKYT about the options put before the grand jury.

“They were given the information about homicide, the four levels of homicide and then deliberated and decided that manslaughter first degree was the charge that should come out of the grand jury,” said Baird.

Baird says Snelling’s next appearance in court will likely come within the next two to three weeks.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Laken Snelling. Snelling has been under house arrest in Tennessee, since September 2025. WKYT is working to learn more information about the arrest warrant and Snelling’s status.

I saw that on my news feed. I'm ashamed I gave her the benefit of the doubt.

But why? Under what definition is this manslaughter?

Seems like first-degree murder. She planned this for 9 months.

Should be very easy to prove:

Did she ever go to a doctor?

Did she make any advance arrangements to birth the baby?

Did she tell anyone she was pregnant?

Based on the public facts, she had zero intention of having an actual live child.

Why didn't this girl just give up the baby for adoption? Or even a firestation with no ID required.

Selfish count
