A year-long investigation into the death of a newborn baby led to the arrest of three people in Pendleton County, including the mother, according to Falmouth Police Chief Marty Hart.

Kimberly Shepperd, 28, is facing charges of incest, concealing the birth of an infant and abuse of a corpse; Allen Newkirk, 62, is being charged with incest; Billy Shepperd, 82, faces one count of abuse of a corpse.

Pendleton County dispatchers received a 911 call around 7:30 p.m. from Harrison Memorial Hospital’s emergency room requesting officers to perform a welfare check, according to a news release.

Hospital emergency room staff suspected a newborn infant may be in distress because a Falmouth woman, now known as Kimberly, came to the hospital complaining of suffering from a miscarriage, the release states.

Upon further evaluation, the nursing staff thought the woman may have given birth and there may be a newborn infant that had been left behind, Pendleton County EMS spokesman Rob Braun said.

Falmouth police responded to the vacant Montjoy Street home and found a newborn baby boy not breathing under a blanket on a mattress in a vacant house.


“The lady in question had just given birth to the child,” Chief Hart explained. “The child was on a mattress where the lady had been lying. It was a newborn infant. The placenta was still attached to the baby.”

The infant was transported to Harrison Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead by the Harrison County Coroner.

Falmouth Police Chief Marty Hart revealed that Kimberly was having an incestual relationship with Newkirk, her maternal uncle. He also mentioned that Billy is her grandfather.

When the baby died, a criminal investigation began.

It took nine months for the DNA results to come back, which confirmed that Kimberly and her uncle were the parents of the child.
