NE - Jennifer Strong, 29, was jailed Thursday on felony child abuse charges. She's accused of fracturing the skull of her 2-day-old son while in the maternity ward.
The baby's injuries do not appear to be life-threatening. The boy was placed in protective custody and remains at the hospital for observation.
Strong initially told the hospital and police that she had fallen asleep with the baby on her chest and awoke to find the baby on the floor. However, the injuries were inconsistent with that.
The baby was supposed to be given up in an open adoption; the adoptive parents now have custody.
