"Angela Hock was charged with negligent child abuse resulting in death after she attempted to deliver a breach baby at a woman’s home last month, according to court documents.
Medics were dispatched to the Omaha home on June 15 when they found the mother, 25-year-old Emily Noe, still in labor with Hock holding the partially-delivered baby, according to an incident report from Omaha Police.
The baby was partially delivered in the breech position, meaning the bottom half of its body was delivered first, according to the report. Hock allegedly asked the medics for medical scissors when they arrived on the scene.
Once given the scissors, Hock performed an “obstetrical procedure of the peritoneum,” a membrane in the abdominal cavity, to see if she could deliver the head of the baby, but the procedure did not help, according to a court affidavit.
“The baby was eventually delivered by squad personnel while in route to the emergency room. The baby was limp and had no respirations or pulse,” according to the affidavit. “Resuscitation efforts were performed at that time. The baby was taken to the Newborn Intensive Care Unit upon arrival at the hospital and placed on life support.”
The newborn, a baby girl named Vera, was removed from life support two days later, according to the affidavit. Doctors said the baby had been "deprived of oxygen for approximately 10 to 12 minutes during the time that Hock attempted this delivery without medical assistance," according to incident report."
