On Monday, a 3-month-old child was taken to Utah Valley Hospital and soon after flown by medical helicopter to Primary Children's Hospital.

"Sydney Kennedy told hospital staff that she accidentally dropped the infant onto the floor of her bedroom," according to a police booking affidavit. "When the infant arrived at Primary Children's, the doctors discovered three separate skull fractures and active brain bleed that required immediate surgery. The doctor at Primary Children's told me that if that infant had not been immediately flown to their facility for surgery, the infant most likely would have passed away from the severity of the brain injury."

Doctors soon discovered other injuries such as multiple rib fractures, a fractured collarbone and symptoms consistent with shaken baby, the affidavit states. The medical staff became further concerned when the infant's parents left the hospital late that night and did not return nor did they inquire about the status of the child, according to police.

"Provo detectives located the infant's parents at their home … and both were taken to the police station for interviews. The baby's father admitted that he had concerns about (the) infant's safety with the mother. And even expressed that a few days ago Sydney, the mother, told him that she was not sure if she should be alone with her baby," according to the affidavit.

Kennedy then admitted she had caused the critical injuries to the infant, the affidavit alleges.

"Sydney admitted to getting angry because the infant was crying and would not eat," and then shaking and throwing the child, the arrest report says. "Eventually Sydney admitted to getting angry and frustrated and shaking the infant on at least three occasions."


Police noted "the injuries caused by the infant's mother were so severe that any further delay in the emergency treatment would have led to the infant passing away. The infant still may pass away, and is likely to have severe medical difficulties if it does survive. The medical doctor was clear the abuse was ongoing and severe."

In USA, when a mother drops her infant on the head, she calls emergency.
Im Poland, she gets the front page riding a horse in a bikini.

Most likely the Baby was crying and would not eat because she had broken ribs, collarbone, skull , other fractures and injuries! That will definitely make a baby cry!! How the “mother “ can question that, the injuries she caused! Don’t give the eee babe back to her!
